I really love things with melody.

I'm not melancholy; I'm a happy-go-lucky person, kind of silly. I like funny things. I have a lot of energy. I tend to like music that's mellow, though.

When something's ending, you go through so many phases, and it can be frustrating. But once you're out on the other side, it's like you can really see all the crazy phases you went through.

I became a musician so I wouldn't have to get up at 6 in the morning.

I'm not planning to jump off a bridge with no bungee.

All is fair in love and songwriting.

Don't go chasing after butterflies, when everything you want is right by your side.

If I make a record I love, then somebody will like it. Maybe not everybody, but that won't matter.

I think it's important for people who love music to retain physical CDs or even vinyl, because it sounds so great and so much warmer than music over the internet.

Nobody can tell you you're wrong for writing a song about how you feel - even if you don't really feel that way.

I love my dad and we have a very good relationship now.

The closest and most precious people in your life are guaranteed to make you feel the entire spectrum of human emotions.

Let's start with the church. As you know, it's my background, it's a natural setting for me and it's definitely my roots.

I think I'm more of a guardian angel girl.

The last time I took drugs, I probably took more than anybody could survive.

I will always speak my mind.

Drama often obscures the real issues

All that we do without offering it to God is wasted.

Don't be satisfied... always try to strive for more.

You can find the way by yourself naturally, you just need a guide to tell you to be careful, to not do this to impress people, just follow your instincts.

Songwriting is as much a craft as a talent.
