I realized the more I made the music for myself, the more successful I was becoming.
Daniel Powter -
I was so dyslexic as a kid, and still am, and music was such a great form of escape to me. At school I'd keep my head down and try not to get beat up, and then I'd get home and music would be like a drug to me.

I'm learning as I go. The music has drawn me out of my shell. It's made me open my door a little more and be able to look at people in the eye.
Daniel Powter -
I love making music but with that comes a lot of responsibility and you have to put yourself out there more. I'm learning as I go. The music has drawn me out of my shell. It's made me open my door a little more and be able to look at people in the eye. In that sense of the word, it has been helpful to me so I am happy now.
Daniel Powter -
I just did whatever it took to keep making music - I slept on couches. You would be amazed at how far $20 can go if you stretch it out.
Daniel Powter -
Someone asked me if I was a method actor - I loved that! I needed to know what it felt like to lose everything just to do the Bad Day video! I could really feel the angst!
Daniel Powter -
I write everything. I have that control issue with my music. That's why I'm not in a band.
Daniel Powter -
Well, I'm very dyslexic, so I can't read music. It means I never know where I'm at so it's different every single time. I know when it works though. I might end up doing a bosa nova version of Bad Day when I get to Australia!
