When I'm Writing Obviously I Have All The Nostalgia In The World, I Have All The Emotion In The World, But Then When I Actually Perform, I Need To Just Perform It, And That's It. I Do Retain Like A Little Bit Of It Because I Have To, I Sing And Perform The Songs So I Have To - It's A Performance Of The Songs - But I Just Have To Get The Right Balance.
