Let's say I was a plumber, or I worked at a factory, I would download music, you feel what I'm saying?
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
If I waited for inspiration every time I sat down to write a song I probably would be a plumber today.
I don't think music is my job - I don't think about it that way, because I don't really get paid. There's no paycheck at the end; it's more of a 'whatever is left over' kind of situation.
Being honest is my job. That's what music is for me.
Back home, playing music is never anything you imagine you can do for a living. It's what you do after work.
I grew up making music in my mum's basement, and I used to tell her I was going down there to work, and she'd say, 'That's not work. Go get a real job!' It took me signing a record deal to change her opinion!
If you earned money listening to music, I'd be a millionaire.
I'd hate to have to leave music, but if I got stuck some place, I would.
If I worked as a waiter, I'd go home and write songs and record them. I'd have to. It's the only thing I know how to do. It's the only thing I can do.
I have to take time occasionally to get away from the pressures of this business. If I don't, I think I would get stale, and that would show in my music.
I don't think I'd get caught up in the crazy side of the music industry because it's just not in my nature.
