Metallica - they're so demonic, they're crazy, I don't know how they do it.

I like the guitar better these days. I like the bass, too, but it's hard to fit a bass amp in a small car.

I think it would be nice to be a prince.

I get starstruck really easily. I love music so much - it sounds so silly to say that - so if I'm playing a festival and somebody I love, like [Primal Scream's] Bobby Gillespie, is there in the backstage area, I'm like, "Wow this is amazing! There they are!"

I get really affected by songs as a music listener - they mean so much and they feel so significant.

Initially, I was very much concerned with having absolute control. But as time has gone by, I'm not. I mean, the whole first record was really just how I spent my free time: stoned and drinking coffee in my house, spending three hours on a song.

I had a really intense flying dream most of my childhood into my teens. I would go out at night and fly all over the city and I could facilitate other people to fly with me.
