People are a lot more open than even they think they are. And I feel like I carry a heavy story about where I come from and those roots, but also what I like as a thinker.

What I like is not a particular genre, it's storytelling. There's a lot of great storytelling in jazz, and in folk and in country music.

I've followed my voice rather than forcing it to emerge.

Just because I'm a recording artist doesn't mean I'm not an artist. Because I had to grow.

I'm not angry. I can't sing that loud for that long anyway, I'll start coughing - I don't have the instrument for it. I don't feel that emotional. I'm at peace.

I'm in awful shape. I'm trying to get in better shape. My girlfriend, she's in good shape. She gives me health tips sometimes, like, 'Hannibal, you're going to die.' Stuff like that.

It's just me and I try to be myself when I'm singing.

The Garden of Eden presents the same story: If you want to make yourself gods, you'll find you're akin to the animals.

This recipe is certainly silly. It says to separate two eggs, but it doesn't say how far to separate them.

My baby lives in shades of blue, blue eyes and jazz and attitude.

Tape is wonderful at preserving evidence - fingerprints, hairs, fibers. Tape preserves this, especially on the sticky side, even if the body's been out there for a year.

Was true love when you wanted to slap someone and kiss him madly at the same time?

Countries across the world are taking action now to help them track paedophiles and terrorists who abuse new technology to plot their horrific crimes.
