I dropped out of high school and I tried to go to community college for a little while. I can't be a student. I always hated that lifestyle.

I think it's become much harder because I'm more afraid of every step I take. I'm more aware of its ramifications, I'm more aware of the less creative aspects of music - like the business-side of things for example.

I tend to hear rhythm and melody, chord-progressions, long before I hear words.

I could probably spend the next five years reworking an album from ten years ago, if given the chance, to make it better - make it best, so to speak.

My thought with harmonies and melodies in general, is that if it doesn't come right away then it's never going to come at all.

I love the community and the entertainment too much. I'm used to it - it's what I saw first.

Often when I find myself listening to music, at least 60 to 70% of it is foreign, so I don't understand a word of it. Melody to me will always be a million times more important than words.
