“I often compare my voice to an old car you're only 50% sure will turn ...” — Tobias Jesso Quote

I often compare my voice to an old car you're only 50% sure will turn on when you need it to.

I was putting songs on Facebook and YouTube just for my friends. When one got over 100 plays, I would do a dance. The first time someone that I didn't know commented, it was a dream come true. A year and a half later, I played 'Fallon.'

Piano is one of those instruments you don't have to be good at to sound good - you just have to know where to put three little fingers, which is really pretty easy to figure out.

Obviously I'm not the best singer; obviously I'm not the best piano player or the best songwriter, but I'm doing my best on all of 'em. Once you have all those things in place, then I think everything falls the way it should.

I don't want people to compare themselves to me and feel bad. I want to be inspiring, not to depress them.

I try to stay away, but In-N-Out, you just can't compare it. It's the best. It's the best. It's healthy fast food; they do their own meat and their own salad.

I like to challenge myself, to compare myself against the best.

I don't compare myself with only African-Americans... I do not grade myself on a color scheme.

I think to compare any time you win a Stanley Cup would be unfair to all the players from all the teams.
