I always want to make Strokes records and play Strokes shows.

I guess the best thing about marriage is the fact you've got the coolest partner you can imagine by your side for all the things you're going to face in your life. So far, Juliet's been there for me. She's been good for my voice, good for my everything.

I'm really grateful. But I never had the rock star dream. I thought it would be cool to be a modern-day composer.

A tour is the most intense, stimulating way to hear music; it's the best form to receive it. There's genuine excitement from people. I feel like we've stepped up a level.

The thing for me is I never had this burning desire to do a solo record my whole life.

I don't really care about clothes, but it's about wearing something that gives you social confidence.

Just slow it down enough to enjoy the ride.
