I've got time, I hope, to make lots of quiet records. So quiet you won't be able to hear them.

I'd forgotten what it was like to play music and have it be fun so I decided to stop. I wasn't even sure if I was going to make a new record, I was just kinda quitting.

I used to have a sort of spiky haircut and it just feels better to have short hair again.

When there are no women on the tour it can get awful and ugly - constant horrible jokes and gross behaviour. It needs to be leavened with a feminine presence.

The best songs I write in 20 minutes.

I have to make rock records occasionally.

I don't write down my experiences, but I have a very decent memory. I have tons of books in which I write down phrases as they occur to me. That's how I write songs. I'll need a line and I'll go through the books and find it, the right rhyme and everything.
