I got hooked into folk music by accident, because that's what white college kids liked when I was a child.
I've only ever had one doubt about music. It came when I was 11. I hated playing scales.
I genuinely find the most meaningful thing I do is to make music, but also to absorb some sort of creativity.
I feel my live shows are my music; everything blossoms from the live shows.
True artists are almost the only men who do their work for pleasure.
Political promises are much like marriage vows. They are made at the beginning of the relationship between candidate and voter, but are quickly forgotten.
When people say 'marriage' to me... It's always a means to an end. Everyone's so in a rush to define the relationship.
When the music and the characters are flawlessly synchronized, the opera develops an emotional force that movies and plays cannot match.
I actually grew up wanting to be a filmmaker. I wanted to make movies, and music was a detour, almost.
I want to try and work in different genres with different types of actors, on small movies and big movies.
I always thought that if you don't feel the breath in the actors' bodies, you lose all the intimacy and truth.
I write a lot more when I'm happy, because you're hopeful, you're motivated.
Guitars are kind of just, you know, sexy, especially old vintage ones.
Every song I write, including 'Too Close,' always starts on the guitar.
I eat, sleep, and drink my character. It is my fantasy to go to another planet.
I think the fans really wanna hear the songs the way they sound on the record.
I have a lot of diehard fans. Ace Frehley fans and Kiss fans are the greatest fans in the world.
I'd rather have friends who care than friends who agree with me.
As long as I live I will have control over my being.
My illustrious lordship, I'll show you what a woman can do.
I think a lot of bands are creatively knackered when they come off tour.
