Lyrics are so important, I hate every second of writing them, but it's something I take great pride in when it's finished.

The Queen and Electric Light Orchestra harmonies are so distinct and fit in our songs so well sometimes, but we don't know how to do them properly.

I kind of like being depressed.

As a songwriter I hate this whole, 'If it's a sad song, it has to sound like a sad song thing.' And that goes all the way back to my days with the Format. I'm an insane narcissist, so if I have to get something off my chest, I'll get something off my chest.

I don't have a Twitter or a Facebook, but that doesn't mean I'm any more productive than the rest of the world.

May your past be the sound of your feet upon the ground.

I'm not going to lie. I check the iTunes charts. It's all about the iTunes charts. I only go on the Internet for the iTunes charts and basketball blogs.
