I always think of the live show first where the song is gonna go in the show. That's why they aren't sad songs. When I play I want to make people happy not sad. It's such a pleasure for me to do what I do and I want other people to feel some form of that pleasure too.
You don't have to do everything by the time you're 30. Or 40. All you need is a work ethic. It's what allows you to push through moments of disappointment and self-doubt and fear.
