Vocal study before age 20 is likely to be injurious, though some survive it in the hands of very careful and understanding teachers.
It's nice to get to know people who are the same age as you that do the same things because it's like a different level of understanding.
You get a zero at the end of your age number, and you get some extra attention. That's what I found out.
I got in touch with the creative process between the age of 14 and 16, mainly because I was alone so much.
My forays into trying to date girls my own age from the school I went to were all pretty tortured.
I don't even know at what age I started, because it's always been there. Performing... creating... it's in my DNA.
There are so many artists who get to my age that get comfortable and just stick in a groove, and I really don't want to do that.
I think everybody identified at a pretty young age that I was fairly entranced with myself. And that I had to be tempered.
U2 is an original species... there are colours and feelings and emotional terrain that we occupy that is ours and ours alone.
And if you don't believe the sun will rise, stand alone and greet the coming night in the last remaining light.
I'm fortunate that I've been in this business long enough that I've earned the right to be left alone by my record company.
No matter how close to yours another's steps have grown, in the end there is one dance you'll do alone.
I need some isolation, it's necessary to me, that's just who I am. I need to be left alone.
I have so many different personalities in me and I still feel lonely.
If I was writing songs just for me I'd only play them in my living room, alone.
A friend of mine works for Autism Speaks. It's an amazing cause that is making a real difference in the lives of so many people.
I would say my dream collaboration would probably have to be with Drake. I think he is an amazing artist.
It's been amazing getting to go from city to city and perform for thousands of people. It's an amazing feeling, and the energy is crazy.
Some people are born with a brain that has this weird, magical mathematical thing that makes them an amazing jazz musician.
I really liked 'Super 8'. If Steven Spielberg is an executive producer of anything, you know that it's going to be amazing!
The fans are especially amazing in Mexico. You look out your window, and there are fans that stay out there all night long.
