Just make music; don't talk about politics.

I find the new Justin Bieber video more violent and more of an assault to my eyes and senses than what I've made.

The mentality has taken over because of the way we've promoted things. It's been accepted, to live with fear, and to fear that it's going to be terrible, prepare for the worst. The meat and potato of our existence right now is influenced by what happened after 9/11 - we put our thinking into protecting borders.

It could be the sort of declining grip of the American MTV-nation culture-the fact that MTV doesn't play so much music anymore.

I've documented a lot of things myself as a filmmaker. If you want a rockumentary, that's in there.

If right now, culture's so divisive, it just leaves these millions of people like me out.

I feel so terrible for the kids now. In London, even people in their forties can't afford to buy a house or have kids.
