It's impossible having five, six, seven people in a room being creative together and not fight, because you want to fight. It's the only way creativity works, if you all put your ideas in.

If you've never stared off into the distance, then your life is a shame.

I'm really good in a crisis, because I don't panic.

You live through stuff, and it affects the way you feel about the world, and you write about it.

Time and time again I can't please myself.

For me, songwriting is something like breathing: I just do it. But that doesn't mean you're fantastic.

You don't understand what makes you understand what makes your life better until you take something that makes it so much worse and you embrace that.
