So few people are truly themselves when they're in the spotlight.

I have such a great band. We had played all this material on the road. I just wanted to let it fly.

I would worry if I wasn't coming up with ideas, if I wasn't inspired.

We just did a few takes of a song and just picked the best one. It was real organic and genuine.

When the muse hits me, or the mood, or whatever it is, I get my guitar out and I empty it out. I just start going through things to see what's going to happen.

I don't want to beat people over the head with my political views. It's more about the humanitarian aspect of it.

I usually have an idea of how I want a song to sound, but I don't always know how to get there
