When my first daughter was born, I had to figure out a new way of [making music] so that I wouldn't wake her up.

What I love about lyrics is that they don't have to be very complicated. A good sentence over a great chord with a good melody - all you need is that one moment.

I don't know the first real thing about the dating game. I don't know how to talk to a specific person and connect. I just think you have to go to person by person and do the best you can with people in general.

I've never invested myself properly in trying to write stories. When I write lyrics, mostly I write each sentence separately on an index card and then I lay them out and I just mix them up.

I'm a creature of habit. I go to restaurants all the time and stuff.

I have never stopped playing music.
