There's just a natural human element to a great song that feels immediately satisfying. I like the song to create a mood.

You know, that single girl life and that sense of isolation - that doesn't leave you just like that. And that's what that song is about. I remember that, and that is imprinted on me, that sense.

The music is really about sharing an experience. That's why we call it Stay Human. It's like we're sharing this genuine human exchange.

To my mind, there is a reason that music is there and it's about being human.

If a girl sings a sexy song, I actually become even more attracted to them.

Once I come up with the concept, the rest of the song just comes.

To me, skin is alien and kind of weird; it weirds me out. It's strange, but it's also really intimate and personal; it's living, organic. That's how I want the music to sound; I want it to feel alien and strange, but also like it's got a heartbeat, like it's got a soul, like it's not made by a robot.

I thought make-up was a very sensual thing.

So I wanna see all of you making out during this song.

That fat speed that I love, that sensation, that's what I want.
