I'm not just a singer of funny songs; I am basically, first and foremost, a musician. I'm always recording all styles of music.

What I do and where I come from, the kind of music that I'm making, it's definitely U.K. If I turned around and did a tune with Timbaland, it would be amazing, but it would be me kind of leaving where I'm coming from.

Funny songs aren't usually that good. Like Weird Al and maybe a couple of Beatles songs, but it's kind of hard to bring humor into rock music in an interesting way.

I think I'm making music that's pretty universal.

I'm a fan of music from all over the world.

I'm in a band, and we play music. And that's sort of my way of still being a rock star.

I have very eclectic taste in music, but when it comes to going to concerts, I like going to rock concerts.

For me, rockabilly is very, very exciting music. It's electric and kind of wild, you know? It's 'make your hairs stand up on the back of your neck' kind of music.

I continue to write songs that are topically related to social, political and economic issues of our time, but I also recognize that onstage, I have a lot of fun and audiences have a lot of fun, so I'm trying to package the messages in music and sounds that are fun to perform and fun to listen to.
