I definitely had a top-notch education.

You are absolutely free to describe me as a turtle or something.

I was the youngest child and got a lot more freedom than my brother and sister. I used to wander, doing my own thing under the radar, but I didn't get in bad, bad trouble.

You have to give directors and cinematographers a word blueprint for visuals, but I had to learn that from experience.

I have so many songs, it's ridiculous. I love so many different types of music and tend to write all over the map, style-wise. R&B, rock 'n' roll, screamers, pop, good-time songs.
