Anonymous asked: Hi! This may sound weird but I just want to thank you very much for being such a big inspiration and a great influence at the same time. I'm absolutely in love with your music. I'm doing a paper requirement for my university for an art subject, we have to make our "self-portrait" and I decided to compose a song alongside with the paper explaining my concepts. I hope you...

They’ve been playing “Giving It All Away,” “Never Change,” “This Road,” and the one above is “Perfectly Distracted.” They’ve been rotating my songs during November through December (2011) and so far it’s been about 7 times.

Wherever we all end up...
I just want to say thank you for making the past couple years the most memorable to date.
