I believe that vinyl will outlast CDs. There's no reason for it, but it stays around because there are still people that want them.

I definitely think religion is responsible for a lot of the evils of the world. I mean that's not really in debate. But at the same time, I think whatever gets you through the day, whatever helps you make sense of life I'm not gonna begrudge my grandmother with her rosary beads. It works for them. And at the end of the day, I don't claim to know the answer to anything.

I'm kind of like, "never say never."

When you write a song, the goal is not to convey the details of your life. You should write a memoir or something if that's what you're going to do.

For a sunrise or a sunset, you're manic or you're depressed. Will you ever feel ok?

I think different musical collaborators bring out different qualities in my songs and I like that.

The one recurring theme in my writing, and in my life in general, is confusion. The fact that anytime you think you really know something, you're going to find out you're wrong - that is the rule. The moments where you think you have something figured out, those are the exceptions.
