When I sing, I feel like when you're first in love. It's more than sex. It's that point two people can get to they call love, when you really touch someone for the first time, but it's gigantic, multiplied by the whole audience. I feel chills.

Why should I hold back now and sound mediocre, just so I can sound mediocre twenty years from now?

Music changed my life. I don't know who I would be without it. Don't ignore even the smallest glimmer of passion in your soul, run towards it with everything you have. It could change your life.

Every time you pick up your guitar to play, play as if it's the last time.

I just managed to convince my grandmother that it was a worth while that was something to do, you know, and when I did finally get the guitar, it didn't seem that difficult to me, to be able to make a good noise out of it.

I don't know how to function without music. When I'm not making it, I'm listening to it. It gives me courage and takes care of my mind.
