I probably watch movies more than I actually listen to music, I think.

I think you go through different phases when you do albums, and I think that they change according to where you are in your life and what you're inspired by at the moment.

It's not really a conscious decision to do a quiet album or a noisier album. It's just something that happens, I guess.

This is the life I live, and this is the stuff I experience. And like any good writer, I should just write about what goes in my life and what goes on around me. So that's what I chose to do.

I've always written stuff based on personal experience, but I've always disguised it by the use of characters.

When you listen to the music, you see little movies in your head, and that's the beauty of it, I think. People can make up their own stories. They don't necessarily have to know exactly what each song is about. It's their way of interpreting of interpreting different feelings or emotions.

I don't work at night. I'm not very good about working at night. I get tired during the day and I usually like to save my nights to try things out recording.
