I used to struggle a little bit with the idea of how to separate singing from acting and entertaining.
Dan BejarI always start with the lyrics, because starting with the music means the words will be bad.
Dan BejarI certainly didn't predict people who spent years actively disliking the band to all of a sudden like the band. That's pretty funny to me, and it makes playing live kind of interesting, 'cos we're doing lots of things that don't really have a lot to do with that record, and even presenting the songs off that record in a way that's a little more muscular and without as much of the sheen, which is what I think part of what people really liked [about Kaputt].
