I am having fun being an artist, and I'm looking forward to touring with my band, and playing the new and old songs live.
I've never written a song that I thought was a hit.
I love when people get songs wrong. I love when people take something from a song that's totally not what I intended!
But I'm just having fun playing and giving Botox injections to the older songs.
I can't wait to front my band with these new songs and play for fans, but I've decided to keep my day job too.
People take songs so literally.
So it was just a case of getting a bunch of songs that I had been writing for years but hadn't recorded together, and the result was My Own Best Enemy.
The only thing that's a little tricky about it is sometimes people assume that if it's a new song, it's a reflection of what you're feeling or going through now.
I didn't want my last chapter to be the guy who sits at the piano and sings love songs.
People are going to misinterpret some of these songs and I think that's kind of cool.
It's funny; Luther and I have written many songs together, but we've never written songs in the same room.
As a songwriter, there's nothing better than winning Song Of The Year. But I couldn't really celebrate, because it wasn't right. Luther wasn't standing next to me, to receive the award.
