I want to make great songs.
If I had spent fourteen months in a small room with Jesus, I'd want to fist fight with him.
I grew up in a house of no love or emotion - it kind of sticks with you.
I like my home and I like the nature.
I think when I listen to old records, it puts me back in the atmosphere of what it felt like to make the record and who was there and what the room looked like. It's more a sensory memory.
People always called the Cure gloomy, but listening to the Cure made me happy. There was something about the gloominess that gave me comfort, and I think we're the same way.
