I love the idea that you can create a world through song.

Usually for me, the melodic structures come out in the water and the lyrical ideas could come from a book I'm reading.

You wake up, you wake up, another day, you wake up, you wake up, traffic still moving at the same speed, our eyes looking at the same speed, our minds thinking at the same speed, I wanna see movement, I wanna see change. I wanna wake up for real. I wanna wake up. I wanna wake up. We were meant to live.

The tendency in today's culture is to want to be a 'star', but I want to be a servant.

I've always been fascinated with the strong emotional ties that music can have. A song can bring you back to a place or a season of life like no other art form can.

I think sunrises are rarer for me, but sunset is my favourite time of day.

I love a good pop song. I have no problem with the concept of doing that sort of thing. For me, it's usually what I'm inspired by, what I'm thinking about.
