I come to sing for the people, not for the government. God made the sunshine for everyone and made the moon for everyone. We have to follow his example so we have to play music for everyone too. We have a message, and in order for our message to reach the people, we have to play.

URGE is a grassroots charity. We organized to get some incubators to give to the hospital for the kids. We donate money to orphanages.

The political system is not for the people. The people are secondary to the economy. It's about what generates money, not about what benefits the people.

I've tried body surfing. It's nice.

Today, music is great for entertainment, but it is lacking soul; it's lacking substance, and it's difficult to find good stuff. There are too many corporate interests. It's not about the actual music because it's about the corporation, and music just becomes part of a package.

Some of my songs I don't do on tour because they don't work well live.

Once you start messing with psychological well-being, we get more and more messed up.
