I find the songs I want to record by listening to as much music as I can. 'When I hear things I really like, I ask the writers to send me a tape of everything they've ever written.

I don't know if bliss is possible and I've always thought that my best times will be later in life.

If you don't know what makes green, you're going to try every color combination.

I never had any big dreams about doing something on a huge scale.

I love being in the world of the unknown.

I'm much better at fixing or changing a melody to suit me than I would a lyric. But for me, everything is lyric. It has to be true for me to say it.

I think that people respond to honesty in music, so I only choose songs that are the truth for me.
