I'm usually going to make a record, finish a record, start a record or start a tour or between tours.

As a writer, author, creator of something the fact that people are still interested, is fantastic.

I'm writing new songs for a Broadway version of Tarzan, which is very interesting. I think what I learned from the Brother Bear score side of things, I've brought into the new Tarzan songs. Thinking outside just guitar, bass, drums and keyboards.

Considering yourself selflessly selfish is a principle of all great thinkers

I'm not trying necessarily to become a movie star; that wouldn't be bad but that's not the aim. I'm just trying to do interesting things and go into areas where I've not been before.

I don't really belong to that world and I don't think anyone's going to miss me. I'm much happier just to write myself out of the script entirely.

Think twice; it's just another day for you and me in paradise.
