not only misrepresent(ed) the extent of my illness but also the treatment involved.
A simple smile, a tender touch, speaks the true language of love.
Love when you can, cry when you have to, be who you must, that's a part of the plan. Await your arrival with simple survival, and one day we'll all understand.
When you are not near me, I make the sound of one hand clapping.
I'm affected by my environment. Los Angeles makes me defensive and wary.
I wanted to pay tribute to my musical influences: Buffalo Springfield, Lightfoot, the Beatles, the Hollies.
I always try to give my songs as gifts.
I kinda threw the spotlight away from me for a little while.
I feel it right down in my stomach when I'm in touch with something. I don't know what it is.
I'm not 20 years old any more. I'm not gonna go out on quite the limb I did.
How many more idols must you find before you realize that you are the one you have been searching for?
Tennessee helps me open up. I'm much more vulnerable there, more willing to talk about anything.
Phoenix was a tougher record, a little more commercially accessible record.
People who listen to my records expect the ballads from me. The rock 'n roll is on there because it's another mode of expression.
