Family and friends always need to be bigger than your music career, and in that sense, your music will be bigger because you respect your family and your friends more.

I'm not too fond of the typical Australian activities or culture. I'm not into surfing.

Sometimes it's not like I write very specific, it's more like I add an atmosphere almost to something that might have been quite awkward in my mind from the beginning. Something has happened and I want to force myself to think of it in a more positive way. And then I force myself to write something that convinces me that this is actually something pretty good or something that I learned something valuable from.

I really think I need to find a home. I don't know if that includes a girlfriend or not, but first I need to find a home, definitely.

I love a lot of old disco because it's aerodynamic, smooth, and very seductive.

When I performed the songs in front of an audience at the end of each project and I knew the storytellers were in the crowd listening, that was hard.

Actually, I caught myself thinking that I was hoping for someone to break into my apartment and steal my computer, or a big fire would take place in my apartment, or thinking of uninstalling my firewall so someone could hack into my computer. I just had all these dreams and eventually realized what I needed to do was delete the songs because I really wasn't happy with them. I needed a fresh beginning.
