I've had nightmares about having to kick people out of my band because they've said that they don't like the Beatles. I'd wake up and turn to them and say, "You like the Beatles, right?"

In the end, I think musicians know that getting up in the morning and making music you love doesn't necessarily mean that you deserve billions of dollars or worship from anybody.

If you know what kind of music somebody loves, then you can kind of figure out why they do what they do.

No matter how naturally gifted you are, it's your passion that's going to make you better and maybe touch some people.

What affected me the most about the Beatles was that they were the biggest band in the world and they could have done anything they wanted.

I have no shame in making music that maybe, if you listen to it long enough, you'll realize you've heard this or that part of it before.
