When I hear music, it's visual; I see things.

I'm definitely happy with everything I've done. I stand behind it. You'll always be saying, "Well, I could change that, or I would do that differently." But you have to let it be what it is.

When I stopped trying to write songs, that's when I'm able to begin writing songs. You have to just use your life, and the things around you for your inspiration.

It's like a dream to come to Spain and stay for a couple of years and get somebody to teach me Spanish music.

If you heard my records and no one told you, I don't think you'd know whether it's a band or one guy.

God said, Here. Have it. Enjoy it. I'm gonna be miserable?

If you look at the guys in the '70s, like Led Zeppelin, they had bigger planes than we do, they had more money. But they weren't singing about it.
