The songs that I like are the ones that you can't visualize, that are just cries from the heart - those very straight, direct songs that make rock & roll music so wonderful.

Some people, myself in particular, have an adversarial relationship with the camera, and it sprouts up in every photograph.

It's an Australian thing to be dismissive. We find that endearing. Americans don't. They believe what you say.

Music is storming, driving, relentless, devotional, slinky, subtle, heartbreakingly-beautiful sounds that, lyrically, switch from the cynical to the sanguine, the defeated to the defiant, dealing in love, war, beauty, children, romance, rejection, Pethedine, poetry, panties, God, Auden, Johnny Cash, cold potatoes, too-much-money, not enough money, writer’s block, flowers, animals and more flowers. But maybe I’m projecting here.

There are times when I think I can sing it better, but usually I find that I can't.

We as visual artists need to continue to be renegades and say, "Yes I am here to do a project, but what is the social service?"

The blues is instilled in every musical cell that floats around your body.
