Being uncool is being pretty much the coolest you can be.

But I want to deepen as an artist, and working with Shakespeare definitely points in that direction.

Putting all of my time In learning to care And a bucket of rhymes I threw up somewhere Want a locket of who Made me lose my perfunctory view Of all that is around And of all that I do.

I definitely try to broaden the scope of music. I don't know if it's pop or classical or what, but I'm religiously challenging myself all the time, for better or for worse.

I definitely have a Luddite's approach to what's going on. I find that as I get older, I get stupider.

To me, songs come of their own volition - and with an open-ended philosophy.

Once you've fallen from classical virtue, won't have a soul for to wake up and hold you.
