00:00This is your first AMA's.
00:01This is my first AMA's, you're right.
00:03Did you ever think you'd be at the American Musical Awards?
00:06Nope.
00:07It wasn't on your mood board, you're manifesting it?
00:10No, I didn't even really think about it.
00:13I just, here we are.
00:15The first time I interviewed you was at the Twisters premiere.
00:19You had just opened for Taylor.
00:22You still had the nail polish on from your...
00:26That little green snake, yep.
00:27You did.
00:27How has life changed since then?
00:30Wow, quite a bit has changed since then.
00:33I think things are just kind of picking up in speed.
00:35It just never stops coming in.
00:37There's always shows to play, there's always songs to write,
00:40there's always things to release, there's always videos to post.
00:44And yes, sometimes it can be exhausting,
00:47but at the same time, it's like, I love doing this.
00:49I love putting myself out there.
00:51It's very obvious how much you love it.
00:53Thank you. I'm trying my best.
00:54But yeah, things are just, they're going quickly.
00:58And I'm trying to keep up.
00:59Who's the one artist right now, they have to say yes, money is no object,
01:04you want to work with, who is it?
01:09Bruno.
01:10Why?
01:11Bruno Mars.
01:11I love him.
01:13I love what he does.
01:14I love his voice.
01:15I love his character.
01:17Favorite song?
01:18Oh.
01:21Talking to the Moon, I think.
01:23Why?
01:23Well, that one's one of the first songs I ever started to cover.
01:26Oh, cover a little for you.
01:27Just on my own.
01:28Oh, no way.
01:29No way.
01:30No way.
01:31But it's nostalgic for me.
01:36I think a lot of people my age, I'm assuming, grew up listening to Bruno in middle school
01:41and in high school.
01:42And he's huge.
01:43He's the best.
01:44He's insane.
01:44He's the greatest.
01:45Such a spectacular talent.
01:47And I would obviously love to work with him.
01:50And now tell everyone why they should buy your album.
01:52You know what?
01:53This is my best shot at doing my own version of Bruno.
01:59This album, American Heart, means so much to me.
02:02I think it is the best body of work I've ever made.
02:05And I hope that you guys all can relate to it and find something in it that you love.
02:11And that's all I can do.
