My driving philosophy about making music is that you can reduce it all down to one note if that note is played with the right kind of sincerity.

For me there is something primitively soothing about this music, and it went straight to my nervous system, making me feel ten feet tall.

For me, living and making music, they're one thing. It's not like a job that I go to a studio to do, or a chore that I have to get myself in the mood to do, or something. It's the thing that I need to do every day.

Music changed my life. I don't know who I would be without it. Don't ignore even the smallest glimmer of passion in your soul, run towards it with everything you have. It could change your life.

I just want to write songs in my little corner. And I still love music, I've not been worn down by cynicism.

I don't know how to function without music. When I'm not making it, I'm listening to it. It gives me courage and takes care of my mind.
