I've worked with just as many talented women as I have talented men, and I feel fortunate enough to have that great balance.

I've never used the word jamming. It's a matter of finding a great song and learning the chords, then slightly altering the vocal melody, and matching a classic chord progression with another chord progression.

I'm somebody who gets a lot of inspiration from dreams.

I always prefer other people's interpretations over my own, so I'm not very quick to make explicit what exactly a song or record is about.

My philosophy for producing a record is for everyone involved, including myself, to get out of the way of the song, and at the same time, listen to it as closely as you can, and listen to where the song wants to go.

It was endlessly amusing to me to try to imitate John Lennon and Paul McCartney's harmonies using the guitar.
