Without David Bowie, popular music as we know it pretty much wouldn't exist.

All of us little bald white guys wearing glasses kind of look the same.

I taught Bible Study, and there was period where I thought all of my beliefs were right, and everybody who disagreed with me was wrong.

As music became more profitable in the 1990s, it seemed like it attracted a lot of people who were just interested in the financial aspect of it, which is depressing.

When I was growing up I was an atheist, then an agnostic, and then I had a good eight or ten years of being quite a serious Christian.

If I were to be really petulant, I would say New York is the one doing the betraying. Because the New York I fell in love with doesn't really exist anymore.

My goal is to make one-not a hodgepodge, but just the sort of record that I would want to listen to.
