You can do anything you wish to do, have anything you wish to have, be anything you wish to be.
You leave home, you move on and you do the best you can. I got lost in this whole world and forgot who I am.
I carry a weapon. I got a death threat a few years ago and was really scared. But I don't want bodyguards. I am my own security.
Usually, I cut songs by other people that are artists that I already love.
I think the unconditional love you get from an animal, especially a dog, is better than anything else.
When I got a record deal I said, 'I'm only wearing jeans. I'm not wearing frilly dresses. ' Dancing around in sequins is just not who I am. I wanted to be heard, not seen.
I just feel like it's easier to co-write sometimes, especially if you have chemistry with somebody. It kind of takes all the pressure off of you. But, you know, I started writing songs by myself. I didn't really have a co-writer, besides my dad. When I see a record and it has a song on it that someone wrote [alone], I just really believe in them as a writer. I feel like it's a window into them, more than it is if you write a song with someone else.
Probably my biggest challenge is not eating all the food that I want to eat sometimes.
To be an atheist requires an indefinitely greater measure of faith than to recieve all the great truths which atheism would deny.
I have been working. I've been blessed to have shared a movie in the north of Chile called 'The 33,' with Gabriel Byrne and Juliette Binoche and Antonio Banderas, which is the beautiful story of the miners (trapped underground for 69 days in 2010). And then, this incredible, epic story came my way.
I guess I've never been introduced properly to Pink Floyd. I know they're great, don't get me wrong. Excellent, excellent musicians; great band; awesome harmony; great song writers; I just don't know anything besides, I guess, the popular songs on the radio.
