It's interesting to do other people's music - that's how I learned to play, by learning other people's songs. It's nice to delve into how other people got to where they are.

When you do music, your friends are writers, actors, painters. It's all under the same roof. So anything creative is interesting to me.

I'm just trying to make my favorite music. That's how I work; I just do things based on the way they feel to me. I want to be touched by the music I'm making. Luckily, other people have shared that response to my work over the years.

No matter what, I'm always interested in making music.

I'm not really a strange person or anything, so if there's music I like, usually there's other people who like it too.

I love to get to that place where I don't know what kind of music I'm doing; I don't know if it's any good. I don't know if it's anything. It's a big question mark. The idea is to have interesting results. That's my bottom line.

You've got to put interesting people around you; you've got to work with people who are gonna inspire you to take the songs you've written into a completely different direction, because there's nothing more boring than going to the studio and predictably knowing what is going to happen.

I like trying to make sounds that are interesting and are a bit weird. I try to make music that captures people's imaginations.

I have a very eclectic taste when it comes to music.
