I don't know where people get the idea that every Wilco record is supposed to have drama. OK, I guess historically speaking we've had our fair share of ups and downs.

I spent a fair amount of time editing the lyrics and allowing the song to kind of evolve. ... anytime there's anything worthwhile, it certainly 'feels' like it happened on the spur of the moment, but it's a composite of lots of spurs of the moment, hopefully. And over time, you catch up with those, and then you have a full set of lyrics you've thought of and you feel comfortable singing.

I still have a lot of faith that there's very few people who are savvy enough to actually produce a good sounding copy of the record.

For the most part I stand by all of records. I just always like the one I've done most recently the best and I think that's the whole point.

I think that there's a lot of good will that exists between musicians and the people that support them and listen to them.

I always listen to records that I've been a part of with a grain of salt.
