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.
believe boils cannot feels good might paying people taught terms
Everything I've ever taught in terms of self-help boils down to this - I cannot believe people keep paying me to say this - if something feels really good for you, you might want to do it. And if it feels really horrible, you might want to consider not doing it. Thank you, give me my $150.
everybody five four given innings last might runs six supposed three wants whatever
Everybody wants to put it down to the last inning, but when you've given up four or five runs in the first four innings then, yeah, you have to make that kind of a comeback. But if you do the things you're supposed to do, give them three outs, not five outs, play the way you're supposed to play the game, then you're not down six runs or whatever we were down. You might be down a run or two.
decide happening might
If you're feeling intransigently ambivalent, it might pay to formally accept what's already happening - that is, decide not to decide.
grain land might time
Land is a commodity, just like grain or anything else. And the time may come when they might want to 1031 their way out of here, too.
arrested danger extent might people public themselves
People are being arrested for being intoxicated in public to the extent that they might be a danger to themselves and others.
inspirational practice might
We are just living this moment; we don't have to live 150,000 moments at once. We are only living one. That's why I say you might as well practice with each moment.
people want franklin
There are plenty of Minutemen. People willing to be Minutemen. Where are the people that want to be George Washington? Where are the Benjamin Franklins? Where is Sam Adams? Where is John Adams?
mother children years
I've said for years to wives and mothers, you must start to see yourself as Sarah Connor. You must equip your children with the information they need to survive an ever-changing world.
helping-others people use
There are a lot of technical studio things I've learned or figured out, and I feel like I could use those things to help other people with what they're doing.
thinking years people
For the records I've work on over the last 10 years, I get sent the really compressed version and the non-compressed version, and oftentimes you end up going with the more compressed one because it's what people's ears are attuned to. I think the bigger problem is saturation and people being desensitized.
believe years people
I've been arguing with people for 10 years about tape versus digital, and I believe tape is absolutely essential in getting the sound that's conducive to the enjoyment of music.
thinking sound tape
I do think music sounds better when it's on tape and more simply recorded.
fun tired years
You spend so many months and years in the studio, and you see the clock ticking and so much time spent on the minutiae of technical things. And I just thought it'd be fun to do something extremely fast and get that rush of something that had some energy, something that you weren't tired of when you finished it.
