Some people have been listening to the Beatles their whole lives; I didn't discover them until I was 18 years old. As a result, I'm still very affected and moved by their music - maybe in a way that's different from someone who grew up around it.

If you're wandering the streets, talking in gibberish, nobody ever asks you to change anything about your art because there's no context for people to look at what you do.

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.

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.

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

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