I've always tried to get around writing love songs, I guess because I've always had a hard time saying, 'I love you.'

I think I have a hard time expressing myself in my relationships. I use songs to tell people how I'm feeling. If I can't say 'I love you,' I'll write a song about it and hope that the person figures it out.

I've always kind of tried to do something that was a little different than just simple 'I love you, baby'-type songs.

I love songs that people can dance to and enjoy at the same time.

I love songs that have a rocking and grooving feeling.

I love songs that tell stories. They make you feel something, something real.
