Adult life is dealing with an enormous amount of questions that don't have answers. So I let the mystery settle into my music. I don't deny anything, I don't advocate anything, I just live with it.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I hardly ever get asked about music. I do, however, get asked about the 'Addicted to Love' video and my suits on a daily basis.
Oh yes, much, because music is just something that comes to you. You don't question it.
Having kids certainly gets me to ask the question, 'Who is the adult here, and who is the kid?'
People are so familiar with the show that I think they're perfectly happy to let it go by without asking any questions. There's a passivity to how we experience 'The Sound of Music.'
Talking, it seemed to me, was the point of adult existence.
My music is genuine, and I'm talking about stuff that no one else - no one my age, anyway, in the game - is talking about. Nobody. I'm the only one really stating facts and speaking with real street knowledge.
Kids these days don't know as much about music as they think they do.
Adulthood is interesting to adults. But I would never want to write about stuff I don't feel everybody can connect to.
It's funny; people get so doctrinaire about music. It should be the last thing you don't have an open mind about.
You can rebel against everything adults say. When I want to find out what the new music is, I find out what parents hate.
