Any time you talk about your own stuff you sound self-aggrandising.

I don't think I've had a more miserable life than a lot of people. I think I've had a pretty lucky life.

If Frank Sinatra is singing, maybe everything will go good.

Singing is something that I'm always happy to do it and going in the studio I never felt any pressure. I just feel like I get to sing, you know. It's fun.

If you listen to old Jerry Lee Lewis records, he'll always - about nine times out of 10 have the lyrics different than the original record is.

My advice is: if you've got to be miserable to write great music, then drive a truck.

I blow up fireworks all the time, and I love making milkshakes and banana splits.
