"The pictures, that was another thing that I was happy that I learned. That I didn't have to tell people what kind of pictures I need to take. I have to fight...not fight! I just have to keep my feet on the ground and be firm about what I wanted.

"It's like I wanna be happy. Actually these kinds of pictures are more appealing to people... I had to make it an effort to say 'Hey, I would like to have more of these in there.' Because I feel like if you just let people do their things, they'll just do whatever and not tell you what's going on, what's happening.

"So I made it an effort, I had to think about the pictures, I have to make an effort and say, there's a photo shoot coming up for the album. That's really important about showing people who I am and what kind of image, what kind of energy I want to show to people."

So what songs in the album does David think show off his personality the most?

"I would always refer to the first and last song," he answered. "'The Other Side of Down,' I felt it really provided the balance of what I wanted to accomplish with the lyrics and what I was talking about, and the feel-good vibe that it had. And just the quirkiness, so I felt like it was what I wanted to show to people.

"The last song, 'My Kind of Perfect,' I felt like it was my kind of love song, because I haven't been in a relationship. So it's about wondering who that person is gonna be."
