I do think music sounds better when it's on tape and more simply recorded.

I'm more critical of my songwriting than anybody, but I've worked really hard in the last five to 10 years to improve.

Whatever you do has to be commercial and it can't be too distracting - it has to be background music, basically.

It gets a little bit troublesome when you have something that's overcompressed that shouldn't be.

I love British humor. It's just so - surreal.

I remember you would record a guitar part, and we would have to sit there for 15 or 20 minutes waiting for the computer to process it. You'd see the little wheel spinning on the computer, and you'd be praying that the hard drive didn't crash and you didn't lose the performance.

Growing up, a film was an action film or it was a comedy or it was romantic, but you don't really see such stark lines between genres nowadays.
