I've always been interested in an idea of boundless love - an impersonal, big love.

If you've ever sang in falsetto, you know that your throat is between your voice and your mouth. In a standard voice, you sing from your belly. And when you sing in a falsetto, you're blocking that. It gives it a filter. It gives it a character. It's less revealing.

That's the thing about inspiration, it just smacks you upside the head, you can't plan for it. It comes like a stranger in the night; you never know when it's going to come or leave, and you just have to deal with the in-between moments because there's nothing you can really do about it.

Try to keep your mind. Try not to eat bad, try not to wake up with too bad of a hangover.

It's the stupidest thing of all time, going on tour. It deteriorates the soul, but it's fun.
