I'm Always Going To Do That -

I Just Want To Make My Music, And I Want It To Stand On Its Own.

If I Make A Record I Love, Then Somebody Will Like It. Maybe Not Everybody, But That Won't Matter.

I Like To Be In Control Of Things.

I Had Success Early On Where I'm Able To Try To Keep It Fun, And I Don't Have To Do Things Just For The Sake Of Making A Living, Which A Lot Of My Musician Friends Don't Have That Luxury Of Course.

The Pop World Is Cool, But I Never Really Thought Of Myself As Part Of It Or Wanting To Be A Part Of It Because I'm On A Label That's Not Really Like That. They're Not Trying To Dress Me Up, They're Not Trying To Do Things Like That. I Feel Like I'm Sort Of Separate From That, Actually.
