want havens
When I love somebody, I love somebody. Like, I want to marry them. I don't date around. I haven't been on a date.
might next passionate
I just feel like I'm going to be criticized regardless of what I do next, so I might as well do something that I feel really passionate about.
thinking 80s-and-90s names
I was not even allowed to mention the name Madonna in my household - just because I think the '80s and '90s were so Madonna-filled. She was going through so many evolutions at that time.
thinking media levels
I'd like to say I'd like to be as big as a Gwen or a Madonna, but I think those days of achieving that level are over. The media is bringing everybody down.
country song people
I was being musically mentored by a lot of people who were obviously more talented and skilled than I was, and I thought that I would just kind of learn the ropes of songwriting there - like how to do acoustic, country-esque songs, which I like because there's so much story in them.
careers people intuition
People tried to do a lot of stuff with me early in my career where they tried to shape me into one thing or another. They couldn't just take the chance and go with my vision - which was just my intuition, really.
moving emotional hair
I'm an emotional person. I love music that moves me and makes the hair on my arms stand up. And I want the same thing in relationships. Either you can keep up or you can't.
running listening stories
I'm not ashamed, or embarrassed. I'm happy that I grew up listening to gospel music and came from where I came from. I feel like I have a history and a story. That's what I am and that's what I'll always be from. I was never running away from it.
moving people want
I still want to make a pop record. I want to make a more sonically current pop record. I maybe want to make people move a little bit more.
4th-of-july america appreciate
Not to sound overly cheesy but I really appreciate the freedom we have in America - especially as a female.
sometimes glamour distracted
Sometimes I can be distracted by the glamour and the fabulousness.
flirting people serious
There are times I go out and meet people and flirt, but it's not really appropriate to have anything serious.
swings dancing style
When I first started out, I was really attracted to having my own sense of style because I started swing dancing, lindy hop, and jitterbug.
song writing honest
With songs, I've always pledged to be honest. I write my songs because I've lived them.
