Baseball is more than a game. It's like life played out on a field.

Sometimes I feel like a human pin cushion. Every painful emotion hits me with ridiculously exaggerated force. And the anxiety feels like hands inside of me, squeezing my guts really hard.

If you want to achieve things in life, you've just got to do them, and if you're talented and smart, you'll succeed.

It costs a lot of money to make an album in a studio in New York with a producer and musicians. I have to pay a publicist every month. I have to pay for mastering, production, the manufacturing of the discs. Then, to promote an album properly, you have to spend a lot of money.

My music - that's the one area I won't let myself be pushed around. But in other parts of my life, I'm a confused mess.

I've finally learned to love my voice for its uniqueness.

Just do what feels right.

I don't really care about money. I find money boring and accounting boring, so I'm probably not going to ever make a lot of money.

People are complex. I'm just showing my complexity.
