As a songwriter I hate this whole, If its a sad song, it has to sound like a sad song thing. And that goes all the way back to my days with the Format. Im an insane narcissist, so if I have to get something off my chest, Ill get something off my chest. – Nate Ruess
I came from somewhat of a musical family. I had an uncle on Broadway. My dad kind of knows how to play instruments. Although, I always find it annoying when he does play an instrument. – Nate Ruess
