I think it's absolutely possible to write a song and go somewhere where no one's been before, uncharted territory. In terms of content, I see limitations where there should be none. I know there are things I wouldn't write about, but that shouldn't be the case. You should be able to make a song out of anything, out of any situation.

What I wanted to hear didn't exist, so it was necessary for me to go out and create it.

I think the reason kids get into drugs and smoking is they don't have anything to do.

I like the idea of playing in unison with yourself.

When you stand up acoustic in front of an audience, you really are a man without any clothes on. And that can be fun - it depends how much of an exhibitionist you are, I suppose. I quite enjoy it.

All audiences should be slightly off balance.
