I have sometimes thought of the final cause of dogs having such short lives and I am quite satisfied it is in compassion to the human race; for if we suffer so much in losing a dog after an acquaintance of ten or twelve years, what would it be if they were to live double that time?

That’s what I love about songwriting – that you can write something about your own experiences and think it’s completely specific to you, and then people can take away a completely different meaning for themselves. I really love that. I think you’ve been successful at writing a song when it has a larger life than yourself.

I remember Alicia Keys and Usher had released a song called ‘My Boo,’ and my music teacher got me to sing a duet with a friend of mine, and I remember being so nervous because I loved to sing, but I could never fathom singing by myself. And when I did that, I remember how proud I was of myself. I was 12.
