The more excited the rooster gets, the higher his voice goes. He's got a little bit of a Barney Fife quality to him.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Writing for 'Rooster' was a strange experience. It's funny, once you tap into a voice, words just start to flow. You know when you've hit a spirit or captured something.
I can do a really high-pitched cartoon voice. Everybody always say they like that.
I'm never quite as excited as people think because with my voice, when I shout, I squeak.
Perhaps when music has been shouting for so long, a quieter voice seems attractive.
Before long, I'll have my own channel - I'll be like Barney.
When Tom Morello picks up the guitar, I'm sure what he sees is totally different from what I do, but I love the way he plays.
The thing about the banjo is, when you first hear it, it strikes many people as 'What's that?' There's something very compelling about it to certain people; that's the way I was; that's the way a lot of banjo players and people who love the banjo are.
The higher the voice the smaller the intellect.
Iggy Pop has a voice that's somehow simultaneously self-mocking, wild, precise, amused, righteous, cool, contained and bold. I don't know how he does what he does.
The parrot's so funny. He imitates me and I don't even realize he's doing it. I'm walking around the house talking to myself and whistling and the next day he's said something I've said... it's scary you know?
