Aaron Bruno
There's a bunch of songs that I call B-sides on the record that you could argue could maybe have some potential commercial success with another artist, but for me, they just felt really whack.
Aaron Bruno
I would say it's always been in me to want to have victorious songs. I sort of want my songs to have a feeling of victory, but through a lot of pain. Like, you're 75 percent to the top of the mountain and sometimes you fall back to the bottom, but hopefully by the end of the record you'll feel like there's no mountain at all.

There's a lot of different things, but I think love gives us peace one way or another, and a calming effect on our soul, so I don't know exactly what love is to me, but I know I try my best to surround myself with that. Whenever I can. It's hard sometimes.
Aaron Bruno
Some people are more affected by, I hate to use the word success, but I don't know what else to say, but some people are more affected by that than others.

In fact, on a side note, after the success of the first record, I got asked to write for some pop artists, as everybody does, and I did a couple songs for some of these massive stars and the review that I got back was, This artist likes the song but it's too POP-y for them. I was like, What do you mean, I thought I was writing for a pop star
Aaron Bruno
You don't put out music unless you have a sense that people will maybe like what you're doing or you're standing for something artistically.

Aaron Bruno
Look, one of the things that I know for sure is that none of us truly knows. That's it. It'll hit you later.
