I've been trying to do films for years. So I've decided to wait until the next good part comes along and develop a record on my own in the meantime.

I love Vivienne Westwood. So much. Every time I go to London, first thing I do is go in there. It's ridiculous!

When you're a parent, you're just like, God, I hope they like me when they grow up. I hope that I did a good job. I hope they're gonna be happy.

I want to be a guy, but I want to wear a lot of makeup.

I wish I could write more make-believe. It's a lot easier to write about hard times and when things are going wrong. But I've never been a private person.

I think after doing Push and Shove and having it not be successful, I lost a lot of confidence. Songwriting, for me, has always been traumatic, and I've always made all these excuses. But I've realized that you have to just accept that it was a gift: "I don't know where it came from, I don't know how I did it, but I did write all those songs, and I gotta do it again."

No one can force me to do something unless I'm passionate about it.
