To think of myself as a role model is extremely flattering, but I could never accept that, because Im just learning like everybody else.

I like things that are beaten up, that have lived a little. I like things that are real. I like things that are made out of wood or string. I never feel very responsive to plastic machinery.

I find it hard myself to feel justified to sing in a very politically direct way about war or social conditions because I feel so ignorant of a lot of it.

Love for money is my sin, any man calls, I'll let him in.

It's good to feel excited by the environment you're in.

I don't loathe interviews, I'm just one of those people who makes music because I find it difficult to talk.

It varies, I don't think there is any one set way of writing songs or coming up with ideas, it comes in so many ways you know.
