If you can't be psyched about your own thoughts, then how are you supposed to have a meaningful interaction with anyone?

I enjoy singing the songs a certain way, but I don't even know how the writing even began. To me, it's work that is kind of invisible; it's a weird kind of work to have because you're not working, but it's not not work. Formulating your thoughts and making a melody that's catchy enough for people to listen to what you're saying is really hard!

I don't believe people when they say their songs have nothing to do with their personal life.

Music is the first thing I ever cared greatly about. I've been singing and writing songs since I was six or seven.

I don't know what folk music means anymore, because the meaning of that just keeps changing.

When people disappoint you, it's just as much your responsibility to be aware of it and what you don't want.

I listen to tapes a lot. I have a car that only (has a cassette player). I like the nostalgic factor.
