My earliest memories as a child are listening to Beatles records, and they are a big part of how I've learned to write pop songs.

Yes, my first memory of singing, in general, was of a Christmas song. And then listening to Christmas music was really the first music I was ever connected to.

I was kind of an outcast in school 'cause I always kept to myself and was writing poetry and then going on tour with my brother band all the time, so kids didn't know what to make of me.

You need to love yourself and be yourself one hundred percent before you can actually love someone else.
