Most of those melodies are me trying to find out what notes fit, and then hitting ones that don't fit in a very interesting way.

Everybody is entertained to death.

I think generally playing live is a crap idea. So much of stage work is the presentation of personality, and I've never been interested in that.

In the 19th century, a lot of people were against outlawing child labour, because to do so would be against the very foundations of a free market economy: 'These children want to work, these people want to employ them... what is your problem? It's not as if anyone has kidnapped them...'

Perhaps when music has been shouting for so long, a quieter voice seems attractive.

The philosophical idea that there are no more distances, that we are all just one world, that we are all brothers, is such a drag! I like differences.
