Working in factories and things like that, it just puts a little hair on your chest.

There's this food that's evolved over thousands of years and people have made their own kind of thing, but it's not art-food, yet. It can be, but it's just food. It's the thing that people do because they have to, because they need it. I feel music is one of those things, too.

Some people are good cooks and some people are good... I don't see why you have to do all of that.

I wouldn't consider myself a songwriter at all. Maybe I piece together a certain little thing here and there, but songwriters are people who do this with sheet music.

I've been playing one way or another since I was about three years old. I don't remember not knowing how to play any instruments.

I didn't have any intention of playing music for a living or anything like that. I was just not doing well in my head or whatever you call it and drinking too much.

I'm just a guy that sings songs because that's what he likes to do, I guess.
