I don't know if you look back on your life and just see successes, but probably the first things that pop up are the regrets.

I'm just kind of a hippie. Age is not that relevant to the music.

If someone's really busy listening to other CDs, and worried about what's new and what's truly relevant for discourse now, maybe it isn't that interesting. To me it is, because I'm tuned into that and that's what I like, so it's interesting to me. It's all I can do.

I'm not dying for everyone to hear everything we do. Forty minutes every two years is sensible.

Some people, they've had a lot of fun, even if it was dumb fun and a shitty body of work.

Every song has a different genesis, or feeling. Usually the lyrics, I don't really know what it's all about, I just kinda do it. I mean, there's a combination of, like you're saying, that kind of lyrics about commitment or vaguely relationship lyrics mixed with jokey 90s Beck-style non-sequiturs and stuff.

I never decided to start singing, to be a singer.
