I have this soft spot for have-nots. So, I was really inclined to portray their pain and pathos in 'Highway.'
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I've always wanted to write about the other side of the tracks, the have-nots, maybe because that's who I was.
I look at something like 'Short Term 12,' and that character has a lot of pain, and I wouldn't have known how to portray that if I hadn't experienced pain myself.
I have found in black metal the lyrics are profoundly beautiful... a pathos and mythos at the same time.
I have found that words that are loaded with pathos and create a seductive euphoria are apt to promote nonsense.
I am a big fan of the TV series 'Taxi' which combined comedy and pathos better than any other show I've seen.
I can tell it all in song: pathos, gladness, love, joy, unhappiness.
I went to see Ocean Colour Scene at Shepherds Bush and and felt part of something. They paved the way for me.
I've seen every highway in the United States, and they all look alike to me.
I feel a kinship with anyone who feels that their road, their life or who they really are is not good enough. I really relate to that.
I questioned everything. I didn't see a character developed in Platoon at all. The character in Blue Velvet was much more fascinating to me.
