I spent a lot of time playing in miserable places that were not a lot of fun. Somebody once said it is character building and I was like: My character is just fine.
The greatest thing about music is putting it out there for people to figure out.
Sometimes I can't get out of the character because the story is very intense.
Love songs last because they are about feelings that don't change.
I've sung a lot of emotional songs, but when you're writing it's very difficult to decide what to reveal.
I like to interpret 'Call me a River', as if I'm saying, 'Now you're telling me you love me after all that, and I'm telling you to shove off.' That's my interpretation. But I would never 'say' that because somebody else might interpret the song in another way.
