I have an identity crisis which is not resolved because I'm a dual citizen. My whole family is American, and I was born in India but I was raised in Canada.

Oftentimes the most produced and synth-tastic songs are the ones that end up sounding the best acoustic.

But its crazy - like ten percent a year increase of children taking fucking anti-depressants. Pre-schoolers are like, the most prescribed. That makes me so mad!

I think more like Charlie Chaplin than like Jennifer Anniston.

Being alive and understanding that and making the decision to actually live take a lot of courage.

It's very hard to separate what is a conscious decision and what's not.

I am really inspired by writers, and weirdly - respect music journalists, which I think makes me the exception amongst most musicians. I think it's a craft. I think it's been really neglected - sadly. I think about the days of the great legendary rock critics. Who's going to become that when magazines and newspapers don't pay anyone properly or don't seem to respect the history or research that is required?
