I mean, look at the people we celebrate - a lot of people who really don't do anything. They just walk the red carpets and go to all the parties, and they're hooked up with the right people, so they're celebrities. But what for?

I'm looking forward to going out at the concert with a clear head, with a clear mind, with a clear spirit and experiencing whatever it is. It's great.

Music definitely inspires my design all the time.

Nine out of ten groups that came out in '89 are gone. I'm still here.

I never sit down to write. When I'm moved, I do it. I just wait for it to come. You just hear it. I can't really describe writing. It's in my head. I don't think about the styles. I write whatever comes out and I use whatever kind of instrumentation works for those songs...A lot of people don't listen to the lyrics, really. A lot of people pretty much only listen to the chorus.

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

A lot of my songs deal with spirituality and God, and I guess if you're in tune with that, you'll read into it.
