I don't want to be anything other than what I've been trying to be lately.
I like to do the splits onstage.
I think listening to real classic soul material made me learn how to feel music that's sung.
I don't want to see Superman replaced with Superboy.
There's always some amount of gradual, slow burning destruction over the course of partying.
When people put that sort of pressure on you, you're worried that people won't want to receive you.
I guess I'm happy that I'm getting the attention. Otherwise, I'd just be playing in a local bar in front of my family members, and I'm sure they'd get sick of that in no time.
So if I was dating somebody now and the relationship didn't work out, I'd take that as failing.
When my grandfather died, I started adopting some of his accents, to sort of remind myself of him. A homage. He was a war hero, and he was really great with his hands.

It's not my goal to be a famous actor.
I love to play music.
I took a lot of time to open myself up to taking chances musically.

I happen to be a guy who also plays the piano and sings, so people automatically associate me with Billy Joel.
My dad didn't want me to play guitar. He played piano, so I chose that. And I ended up loving it.
The early Billy Joel stuff I fell in love with, like Glass Houses, is a real rock record.
