If you write songs you have an idea how they're going to sound. ↗

I just feel like the songs that come out are the songs that come. ↗

I write songs because I have to write them, and if I didn't I'd be doing some other kind of music that didn't require a song. ↗

I don't play the traditional Charlie Parker songs. But I do improvise and I do create with my instrument, and that to me is jazz. But there are people who use the word 'jazz' only in a traditional sense, and they would be offended by that, and that's fine. ↗

I listen to all the top 20 songs, and top 20 albums, even the rap albums. But I don't like negative messages. If somebody is putting a lot of ego out there, I don't like it. When I make my records I want it to be sincere. ↗

I think that you get the mood of a song stronger if you get it right that way. On the other hand, you put some songs out live and they don't catch flight. They just flop. It is hard to tell until they are out there. ↗

I don't know what any of my songs are about. I don't sit down to write about anything. They're about whatever you want. I don't pick subjects. I just start. ↗

Each song is a lifetime, it begins and ends, and there's a journey taken within the songs. ↗

I guess for me what is more significant than success is the nature of each of the songs and of the words. ↗

I loved old black and white movies, especially the Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers musicals. I loved everything about them - the songs, the music, the romance and the spectacle. They were real class and I knew that I wanted to be in that world. ↗
