I met Bill Clinton; he's a very nice guy. Yeah, Bill Clinton's cool.
I don't kind of want to be known as a one-trick pony who just does the adult-alternative song once a year that makes it onto the radio and people sort of think it's nice.
The main thing that you have to remember on this journey is, just be nice to everyone and always smile. Always appreciate things, because [they] could be gone tomorrow.
If I ever have any back-up dancers, I want the penguins from Madagascar.
I don't know if my songs fit in films.
Country music is some of the best-written music in the world, so yeah, one day, I would keep my mind open to doing a country record.
A sense of humor is an important thing to have because when you get into an argument, one of the best ways to diffuse it is to be funny.
We keep this love in a photograph We made these memories for ourselves Where our eyes are never closing Hearts are never broken And time's forever frozen still
I used to get drunk in venues after my shows and sign the walls "Ed was here." So if you see that, it was me.
Paper or razor blade, never give up And just remember just to hold out more A couple years ago I couldn't just control that thought You'd find me buskin' on the street When it was cold outdoors And now I'm sweating on the stage With the sold out tours Writing love songs for the sake of it Never to make a hit
I get tweets every single day going, like, 'I'm so glad you weren't on 'The X Factor.''
In my eyes, there's no one better than Stevie Wonder. He's a top dude.
I find the whole concept of women screaming at me so odd. It's very flattering, but I don't think I will ever consider myself to be a sex symbol.
I want to have a career that evolves as I go on.
