bit
There's more things that I'd like to do. You know, each song is a little bit of a puzzle. I see most of them as just failed attempts.
littles bits little-bit
It gets a little bit troublesome when you have something that's overcompressed that shouldn't be.
against attempts beauty bits five four mix solo
Sometimes when I do an overdub solo, they'll keep four or five of my attempts and then mix the bits that they like to make a solo up out of them. It's not against the rules, really - I can learn my own solos, then. But that's the whole beauty of multi-track recording, isn't it?
arrested bit
No one is being arrested for being a little bit tipsy.
bit frustrated saves second stepped supposed
He's really stepped up when he's had to. I think he frustrated them a little bit in the first half, and he only made the one or two saves in second half ... that's what he's supposed to do back there.
although bit class fooled ourselves talk talks targeting terms thinking
I think it's not fashionable to talk in class terms any more, although Gore's done a bit of that when he talks about targeting the wealthy, ... It will be interesting to see how that plays, because we've fooled ourselves into thinking ours is a classless society. And, of course, it isn't.
growing-up faces bittersweet
If you begin to face your fears, something bittersweet is going to happen to you: You'll grow up.
bad electric hear piano sound turned tv using
I hear a lot of bad TV commercials that try to sound like Where It's At. That pretty much turned me off from using the electric piano for a lot of years.
learning maybe musician starting time weird
Every time you go in, it's like starting over. You don't know how you did the other records. You're learning all over. It's some weird musician amnesia, or maybe the road wipes it out.
influenced might stuff wacky
I have heard some stuff that might be influenced by my records, but it's usually pretty wacky and off-the-wall, which is kind of annoying, to be frank.
certain human meditate
You can't meditate on walking or certain human habits. You concentrate too much on the way you walk, and you'll start walking pretty weird.
music pressure
There's never any pressure on the music having to be something.
age felt people
I didn't go to high school. I never felt connected to people my age.
elitist performing related
The cliche of what a rock star is - there's something elitist about it. I never related to that. I'm an entertainer. I think of it as, you're performing for people. It's not a self-glorification thing.
