I love getting out of my comfort zone.

Singing is a trick to get people to listen to music for longer than they would ordinarily.

I have trouble imagining what I could do that's beyond the practicality of what I can do.

We do express our emotions, our reactions to events, breakups and infatuations, but the way we do that - the art of it - is in putting them into prescribed forms or squeezing them into new forms that perfectly fit some emerging context. That’s part of the creative process, and we do it instinctively; we internalize it, like birds do. And it’s a joy to sing, like the birds do.

As I define it, rock and roll is dead. The attitude isn't dead, but the music is no longer vital. It doesn't have the same meaning. The attitude, though, is still very much alive - and it still informs other kinds of music.

To shake your rump is to be environmentally aware.

I've rarely seen video screens used well in a music concert.
