I find myself a fascinating subject.
I never really expected to win the hearts of the masses.
David Ortiz is a genius. He's incredible to watch. Over and over, he hits home runs that are simply transcendent.
I'd just like to inspire people to be themselves and do what they want and not conform to the rigid guidelines of the music or entertainment business.
Human relations, I mess them up, and they let me down.
I can't believe I got a major-label record deal. My music was quirky, and my voice was so odd and high and girlish, it was like a weird novelty act.
How do you get up in the morning? Another wasted life it's so boring The system never failed you You failed yourself and all of your friends Now your heart is failing too A total system failure they pronounce you
A lot of so-called Christian souls are not fine. People need to look inside themselves and look at the lives they're leading and fix themselves before they try to fix other people.
I see a long lost home in his eyes. He sees a nice hotel in mine.
I don't need a mirror to see that it's true, cause I'm ugly with a capital U.
I never felt happy with the idea that part of what I do is to be an object to be looked at. I thought of my public persona as an entity separate to myself.
You think you know who you are, and then other people have these other ideas.
Songwriting is like editing. You write down all this stuff - all this bad, stupid stuff - and then you have to get rid of everything except the very best.
When I start writing, I'll have a vague concept or I'll just have a title, and the song just goes on its own direction. Usually it goes in many directions within each song. They get really convoluted sometimes.
