I Believe In My Writing.

You Know, When I Did 'american Idol' The Three Times, I Tried To Tell These Kids You Have To Tell The Story Of The Lyric.

'if I Should Love Again' - I Was Just So Impressed With Myself Writing Something Like That. It Wasn't A Single And People Didn't Really Know About It, But It's A Beautiful Song And That's Part Of What I'm Loving.

No One Person Or Material Thing Could Ever Come Close To The Feeling I Get When The Music Is Right.

I Come From Nowhere Brooklyn, New York. Williamsburg, Brooklyn. These Days Williamsburg Is Kind Of A Hip Area, But When I Grew Up There, The Taxi Drivers Wouldn't Even Go Over The Bridge, It Was So Dangerous.

I Didn't Want To Be Treated Like A 'star.' I Fought It Constantly, And I Think I Was Rude.
