If you're in music just to become a big, fat rock star, then I probably don't like your music to begin with.

TV series, there's a lot of everybody talking to you and giving you input for the first couple episodes, and then they're on such a crazy schedule that you get another episode on a Monday, you have to have it done by Friday and it becomes very solitary work usually, TV shows.

I've worked with a lot of directors, some of them you wouldn't really attach the word 'artist' to their name.

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?"

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.

Personally Im very happy to be behind the scenes. I like collaboration, I like working with directors.

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.
