Hold Your Own. Know Your

I Write A Lot Of Material You've Never Heard That Live Inside My Sadness. You'll Hear A Song That Lasts Six To Seven Minutes Of Just Beautiful Sadness. But I Can't Just Go Out On The Stage To Ask Five Thousand People To Be Sad With Me For Seven Straight Minutes.

I've Been Compared To People Since The Beginning. When You're Starting Out, You Need A Comparison So People Will Understand You Right Away.

There's No Shame In Being Crazy.

I Enjoy Going On Stage Knowing That There's Going To Be That Vulnerability And That Transparency And Hopefully Things Will Be Realized Or Accomplished Or That Confidence Will Be Revealed. I Think That's Another Element That People Like About Shows: In Addition To Hearing The Songs That They Love, I Think There Are Some People Who Really Get Off On Connecting With What's Happening Right Now.

When You're Writing A Song And There Are Five People Invested In It, It's Easy For One Person To Say, 'oh, This Song Is About This And That', And Everyone Has To Hear The Idea And See If They Can Do Better.
