I wanted every note and lyric to mean something, he told RS. With the records Ive made before, theres so much emphasis on guitar: Well just play a badass guitar solo, and no one cares about the lyrics. Thats not what I got into it for. I like Quincy Jones. I like Stevie Wonder. I like Ray Charles. I like Cab Calloways arrangements. I like bridges, pre-choruses. Thats something I never really paid attention to

He is amazing live, plays every genre effortlessly, sings so much better than I expected too
