It's funny; Luther and I have written many songs together, but we've never written songs in the same room.
As a songwriter, there's nothing better than winning Song Of The Year. But I couldn't really celebrate, because it wasn't right. Luther wasn't standing next to me, to receive the award.
I am having fun being an artist, and I'm looking forward to touring with my band, and playing the new and old songs live.
People are going to misinterpret some of these songs and I think that's kind of cool.
I've never written a song that I thought was a hit.
I love when people get songs wrong. I love when people take something from a song that's totally not what I intended!
But I'm just having fun playing and giving Botox injections to the older songs.
I can't wait to front my band with these new songs and play for fans, but I've decided to keep my day job too.
People take songs so literally.

I didn't want my last chapter to be the guy who sits at the piano and sings love songs.
These medicines affect all skeletal bones, but they're most concentrated in the jaw.
Even if the record is really successful, it's not going to change my future as a producer; if it means recording another record, great.
