The only really weird part for me was making sense of the person on the TV at the same time as the person who I am friendly with and do something so friend-intimate with as text.

As I've gotten older, I have gotten a lot better at finding the pleasures of making music despite the business of it.

I wanted to touch on the piece where often politicians use "god" to excuse their actions.

As a listener, I like a wide range of sounds.

I started to understand what the song could be about. The ache of nostalgia even for things we don't like, the commitment to keep moving despite that ache. It made me think of how I relate to my privilege - as a white person, as someone who grew up upper middle class.

When I'm recording something (especially because I produce my own music) I might consider how hard it would be to replicate a song on stage.

I didn't realize at the time that if I wrote about something, I was going to have to talk about something. A lot. Ad nauseum.
