When I sang the line, 'Songs about Old Ireland.Songs about being young again.I wish I was young again,' twice people cried. I saw them.

I've always been fascinated by flight and the freeness of birds.

Same if you had a bad show, it just rolls off you more easily.

The songs came from a more solitary place and I hadn't played them with many people before recording. So I just added the layers of people who are in my life, and built up the songs.

I love the idea of birds having human qualities...I think all humans want to be birds so we can fly.

I could hunker down by myself and listen closely to mixes, but then to be able to have a sounding board of peers to get advice and feedback.

I really am planning on living to be 100. People ask, "Why are you so depressed?" I'm actually a very happy person.
