Every song brings back memories, like I remember where I wrote all these songs. 'Universal Heartbeat' was my apartment in New York City. 'My Sister' was at my apartment in Boston. I remember places and I remember what I was thinking when I wrote it.

I'm really conflicted about my role as a front-person. I hate the attention.

If life is a performance, and I am not an actor, am I supposed to lie down and die?

I was just dying to get out of my twenties.

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

I've been embarrassing myself publicly for over 20 years. Why should I stop now?

I tend to fall for the archetypal, talented, charismatic rock boy.
