If you can't frighten yourself, I don't think you can excite other people. And I like being frightened.

Sometimes something has a value, it has an instant quality to it, and that's all it needs to be.

I don't know what genre I've fallen into, I don't know where it is, and that's really exciting.

There was certainly a space I felt for me, don't complain about it not being there, make it.

I love the idea that the person that signs you makes the record, because you get that sense of guidance, of being there at that close point.

About 20 years ago, I had a dream in which somebody sang one of the most beautiful melodies I'd ever heard, and gave it to me, and warned me not to forget it. Of course, I did forget it by the time I had got out of bed. Now as precaution, my phone is overloaded with half sung melodies.

Obviously like many of us, I love music, and I hate music sometimes.
