I'm not a rock singer and I don't want to be a rock singer. I'm not interested. It doesn't seem to get across.

Let your soul and spirit fly.

I've always listened to jazz or folk or blues. I was always listening to the prophets. I don't really go for...I don't know how to say anything about the singles scene without slamming people.

I was all caught up with identifying with certain things. They just weren't very stimulating things.

Leave your thoughtlessness behind you then you may begin to understand. Clear the emptiness around you with the waving of your hand.

What I don't like is taking it to extremes and making all these intellectualizations about what basically is simple music. It's simple stream-of-consciousness stuff in my songs. What I'm trying to get across is misinterpreted.

I felt kind of bored at the prospect of writing some more of my own songs because I really wasn't saying what I wanted to say.
