People tend to think I'm insane, and I'm really tired of it.

From folk to tribal to Cab Calloway, Cole Porter, Gershwin to the Rolling Stones, whose first record was all covers, to country-western, bebop, blues, and even the referencing in classic hip hop to cliched love ballads of the '80s or whatever - that is kinda gone, and that's just terrifying to me.

I still haven't been able to capture the joy of what it's like when I sing - you know, when I'm by myself, or like when I was a little kid.

Hip-hop and R&B is mostly what I listen to. I don't have a connection with punk rock - I just never had that experience.

We're always going to remind ourselves of our mistakes and how we do things differently, trying to be a better person or whatever.

People and their religions don't affect me.

I am human and I make mistakes.
