I write in the studio, I don't sit around with a piano or a guitar and write songs. I get satisfaction out of that because I can finish the song really quickly. I can use whatever momentum I have. I've got to put it down, develop it, and get it as far [as I can], because the excitement of the moment of when you get that idea - you want to try and hold it and build on it and really gain strength from it. Being in the studio and writing songs like that is really the best way.

I never use the word, it's loaded. What love means to me is need.

When somebody grabs a movement, you're kind of locked into it. It's all par for the course.

The only reason we wore sunglasses onstage was because we couldn't stand the sight of the audience.

If you're all loaded up on love, you haven't got anywhere else to go.

In the studio you have pretty much carte blanche with whatever you're doing. You can turn natural instruments into electronic instruments.

Everyone should be encouraged...in spiration and artistic freedom is the cornerstone of rock and roll.
