I always just try to write the best songs that I can at any given time, and sometimes those songs are for me, and sometimes they're for other people. And that's to be evaluated after the fact.

You always hope for the best when you put something out and try to make the best music you can make, but you can't control what happens after that.

I just try to make the best music that I can. People are going to label it whatever they're going to label it.

The goal is always just to write the best song that you can write. I mean, the process for writing a song is the process for writing a song. It's not something I look at it as something I need to do something different.
