My music - that's the one area I won't let myself be pushed around. But in other parts of my life, I'm a confused mess.

I like visiting LA, but I wouldn't want to live there.

I listen to NPR and baseball games when I'm in my car. I mean, exclusively NPR and baseball games, and that's it, as far as the radio.

The most rabidly religious people are the most rabidly evil.

I have many moods, and there is no objective reality. And I kind of live by that.

I'd just like to inspire people to be themselves and do what they want and not conform to the rigid guidelines of the music or entertainment business.

Once I picked up an electric guitar, I lost interest in piano, and I just wanted to rock. I studied piano for so long, I got burned out on it.
