I'm much more for style and not trend-driven.

What is the popular image of rock star? A rail-thin, overly-paid, narcissistic, average-talented individual who self-implodes in front of everybody, eternally having a party and who looks eternally youthful?

The days are usually filled with nonsense and every now and again somebody flies by the circus to party on your dime.

Kanye West talks about being Axl Rose, being Kurt Cobain, being Jim Morrison. Adam Levine is selling acne ointment to teenagers.

Chris Martin is more of a musician and hasn't really put himself out there as a television host or anything like that.

I didn't join a band. I didn't start a band. I got asked to do it. It kinda happened by accident.

I admire Chris Martin. Coldplay have made some wonderful records for the genre they're involved in, but I would consider them to be more of a pop act. The music is much more cerebral than it is animalistic.
