"The thing they say [to me] is, 'You have no idea what your music has meant to me,'" the singer told ABC News a few years back. "And I get from that statement that something horrifically wonderful, or horrifically bad, happened and something that I wrote was there for them at that point. So that, I love, and that matters to me."
