People digest and process music differently, and I'm sure that was the case even when I was a kid.

I think sometimes I get overly excited about adding things and having new ideas. You forget that more isn't always better.

I guess everyone has their own definition of what folk is or pop or whatever. I find it incredibly hard to describe music these days.

I think there is a fascination with choral music in general.

It is definitely much easier to feel that an album is disposable - to dismiss an album or delete the tracks you don't like or to just throw it into shuffle or whatever.

I would never be angry at someone for downloading the album. Sometimes people just wanna listen to it first to see if they like it and that's totally fair.

One of my favorite things is when I'm listening to a song and I find my own meaning in it that I can relate to and I can create my own relationship and bond with the song.

My mother was a music teacher and my grandfather was a professor of music, and there was a lot of singing in the family. It wasn't like trained singing or anything like that, but it was singing.

I don’t want to go to heaven. I want to transform the earth to be heaven.

Make yourself indispensable and you'll be moved up. Act as if you're indispensable and you'll be moved out.

You can't make everybody laugh. You gotta just do what you think is funny. Just be obstreperous to everybody.

I want to write songs with meaning. I have high standards for my work.

Famous people like to choose friends who won't go around repeating their conversations and details about them.

Radar, of course, is what cellphone radiation is exactly like. It can be a similar frequency, it's just much weaker power.

I do limit my exposure to the public. You only have so much time.

Music has always been a big part of my life. It's kind of like a refuge for me. I just use it to get away.

God will roast their stomachs in hell at the hands of Iraqis.

Responsibility means to perform our service properly,with proper attitude, behavior and words.
