I stopped going out and taking pills and I started hanging out and learning about flat eleven chords.

It's really hard to make something that doesn't sound like everything else.

People can rock together, people can do great things together, and that's what you love when you're working with characters and it's all going well.

I'm not the kind of guy who likes to rush things through. I like to take my time and finish when I'm finished.

Accessible music is much harder. I could throw out the other kind of albums with my eyes closed. I wouldn't belittle those who want to do the Tricky thing, but it does make me wonder sometimes.

I find it quite difficult to analyze my own motives for things. I tend to go with a gut feeling in the moment.

I just wanted to have some songs I could stand behind, and when I'm on stage just be loving it. People ask me why I did that and I think perhaps it's because Berlin is quite a gray place and I needed to sympathize with a bit of sunshine.
