I associate times with certain music. It still is that for me. It's telling the story of our lives.

Any time somebody is into your band that's a good thing. And if they're in a really cool, really popular band, that's a better thing.

A lot of times, I'll have a goal, I'll start writing, and I'll end up in some far off place, which is good. It's nice to have a focus, but letting the lyrics write themselves where they need to go is important.

Everybody is born good and everybody has got the same size soul. We're here to connect with that.

Aqualung is one that my brother turned me onto. It wasn't that hard-rocking, but Martin Barre had a really good sound. He knew what he was doing.

I love playing the melodic stuff. I love adding textures and colors.

Life is for my own to live my own way.
