I guess I'm just a heart-on-sleeve type of human being.

Everything's stolen. Everything precious - be it a kiss, or be it James Brown - gets misappropriated to the aid of the advertising executives. So, an act of reclamation, somewhere else to be: that's what I want my music to be. Somewhere you can step into. A place.

I don't really know why I'm such an emotional person, that's just how I was born. It's a problem. It's not easy to be married to me.

Wonder in everything No matter how great or small... Same thing that's scrawled across the stars Is written under our skin... There's a time to search for understanding Sometimes you just got to sing New horizons, new horizon within

That's what music is for me. It's a place to go to.

I don't know where emotion emanates from exactly. I'm full of it, that's all I know.

It's amazing, the amount of detail and thought that goes into just an average day. Between the things you see on the news, or on the subway, or whatever, it all gets in there. You sort of shut most of it out, but it all goes in.
