I'm going through a phase where I'm really accomplishing a lot of things and in that is everything I've learned.

And for me the only way to live life is to grab the bull by the horns and call up recording studios and set dates to go in recording studios. To try and accomplish something.

Music has always carried me through times of loneliness. So when I make music, I like it to make people who listen to it feel like they have a friend who reveals something personal to them, rather than trying to be like a god up on a pedestal

I write songs because I have to write them, and if I didn't I'd be doing some other kind of music that didn't require a song.

When I smile at the audience, I'm not smiling because I was told that you're supposed to smile to the audience. I smile because they're all smiling at me, and it's a great feeling to see all these happy people out there, and it makes me happy to see them happy.

That's what I spend most of my time doing, breathing a lot. I like air.

Right now my taste is going more for things that are organic where the people are using all the sonic possibilities in interesting ways.
