Music will always be a part of my life. I love music and I don't care how many units I sell.

If I could sell 500 million records every time, it would be great. But I've also had the luxury experience of having it when I was a teenager, in a very kind of model version of it.

I'm quite obsessed with the idea of nailing the girl friendship. It's such an art, so delicate.

These precious illusions in my head did not let me down when I was defenseless, and parting with them is like parting with invisible best friends.

I think some people think I'm a smarty-pants. Some people think I'm intense, some people think I'm super-esoteric and nuts.

Your political views really denote your spiritual views.

I was always such a people-watcher. I would sit on street corners alone and watch people and make up stories about them in my head. Then, all of a sudden, I was the one being watched.
