I lived with my mom in a really small apartment. My bedroom was like in the living room. That's why I still love to sleep on couches now.
I would hate to make music and people love me for something that isn't me.
I see what happens when one gets very attached to material things. That's just not what my life is.
I really like to live my life in a low-key fashion.
I promised myself that I'd never actually admit to listening to New Kids on the Block.
I love the written word so much, I know it's gonna flow naturally.
I love my own music.
I believe Aids is the most important issue we face, because how we treat the poor is a reflection of who we are as a people.
A lot of times I watch TV and I watch film and there's so many things I'd love to talk about that I feel don't get the opportunity to be shown. Sometimes things become very stereotypical and one-sided, and I feel like it's such a colorful world.
And I love kick boxing. It's a lot of fun. It gives you a lot of confidence when you can kick somebody in the head.
I'm a very caring person.
Adam Levine and I remade the Rolling Stones' classic Wild Horses, and it is right up my alley, that whole style. It has a style of its own but still stays very true to the classic arrangement, and I love it.
A Minor is one of my all-time favorite keys to play in. It's a very moody key, and also 'A' is the first letter of my name. It just represents the songs through my eyes.
Soul music is timeless.
But when I first fell in love with the piano, I knew it was me. I was dying to play.
