With other people, you're always swapping music. Somebody is always listening to something you've never heard. It's a great way to hear all sorts of new things.

As a child I spent a lot of time at the library.

I learn all these things about the record talking about it after it's finished.

I'm never sure if I'll ever write another song, what the song will be about and if what initially sparked the beginning of a song might complete it.

After it's finished, sometimes I can trace a path that goes back to the possible source of inspiration.

I'm not sure if the next song I write is going to be about love or a song about a tree.

I'm still thinking and hoping there's an opportunity for people to have better lives and that significant change can occur.
