I've written lots of songs on the piano. My mother had a piano and it was the first instrument I played.
I started playing in the band and learned to play piano by ear.
I had decided that if I was going to be a singer, I had to earn it. I had to learn how to play an instrument.
For me it's the instrument. If I want to think of a flute and the state of the arts I hear a vibrato; I don't know what a flute is unless the person plays it for me.
I used to play the piano in the band, and so there's some horrendous scenes of me playing the keyboards.
I hate playing the piano! And it's so hard to fight for Beethoven's soul! But that's what I have to do!
I could have played more complex stuff. I could have been a busier player. But that's not what I wanted to do. I played what I wanted to play.
What I want to do is play roles as a black man, instead of playing black man's roles. You know?
I don't want a player that's content with not playing... But we wanted to play the guys that got us here.
