Part of you just has to be in service of processing things and getting them out.

I just think music is one of those frontiers where people really want the "I" to be you.

I go through insanity before a show. It's not really a process but it's like absolute mortal fear.

[A]s soon as you try and take a song from your mind into piano and voice and into the real world, something gets lost and it's like a moment where, in that moment you forget how it was and it's this new way. And then when you make a record, even those ideas that you had, then those get all turned and changed. So in the end, I think, it just becomes it's own thing and really I think a song could be recorded a million different ways and so what my records are, it just happened like that, but it's not like, this is how I planned it from the very beginning because I have no idea, I can't remember.

Maybe you should kiss someone who is nice, or lick a rock, or both.
