I have my share of insecurities, hopes and fears. My music is my way to rearrange the world according to my own hopes.

When people come together around music, there's something ancient going on. It has to come from a genuine place and that's part of the challenge. You have to cultivate that authenticity everyday.

When you're just shagging girls, you can talk about it, but once it gets real, then you don't.

A lot of people say I wouldn't have a down day, but you look at the music and there's real melancholy.

Music is the only thing in this world, with the exception of sneezing and looking at the sunset, that takes you to a place that's above the mundane. Everything else is just bullshit.
