I like records that flow really well and you don't have to skip around because there's lot of different jumps.

Songs are about whatever you want them to be about. For me it might mean something completely different than what it means to you. So I'd say it's about whatever the listener thinks it's about.

I wasn't very aware of pop music because I attended an arts school. For me, it was all about jazz.

Songs are kind of alive, I think; once you finish writing them, that doesn't mean that that's it for the song. It can have its own little life, I think.

Making records is fun. It's not some big statement. You're allowed to make mistakes.

I'm in total control. I write the songs, decide what to sing and how to sing. I even control the recording process. But, with a film, there is no control at all.

I feel like I've been lucky, because I don't feel like I've ever tried to be somebody I'm not. People might disagree.
