I was a fireman. I lived in the fire sta­tion for about a year. The pay wasn't so good. It was kind of like being in the army, or what I imagine that would be like.

I like writing melody without an instrument. It's just so - it's more like the choreography of a bee; you just go.

You just write and you don't try to make sense of it. You just put it down the way you got it.

Come down off the cross, we could use the wood.

It's hard to win when you always lose.

There's only one reason why you write new songs: You get sick of the old songs. It's not that I didn't do anything during the time when I wrote no songs. I was creative, but in another way. I had ideas for songs and collected the ideas.

Not the kind of wheel you fall asleep at.
