Will Arnett and I were never in the same room, but once I saw early animation we started writing music for that and then he just kind of did his little rap over top, some of it was free form and some of it I made up, we all just kind of contributed to it.

To me I think artists in general make a statement - and for the rest of their lives - every album, every book - are variations on a theme.

I really appreciate anyone trying to inject art into mainstream film.

When I'm writing a theme song for a TV show I always think, "What would be Pavlovian where a kid would be in the kitchen, or an adult would be in the kitchen, and they hear the theme song come on and it would draw them back to the other room so that they would watch the show?"

I went to Kent State basically to avoid going to Vietnam, I had no idea what I was doing in the world. I was lost, and trying not to get into a fight every day.

It's people who write music because they are obsessed that I like; because they have something to say and no other way to say it.

Choose your mutations carefully...
