weed thinking trying
I think I try to do a lot of things to weed out casual fans.
thinking musician
I don't think I'm even a musician. I don't play a lot of instruments, not really a soloist or anything.
thinking singing
I think I like singing when I'm singing live. It's just in the studio when it's a drag.
character thinking singing
I think I prefer singing in falsetto. I like the way it sounds. It doesn't sound like my natural voice. It sounds like a character.
jobs thinking way
I don't think music is my job - I don't think about it that way, because I don't really get paid. There's no paycheck at the end; it's more of a 'whatever is left over' kind of situation.
thinking somber humans
I don't think I'm a particularly somber human being.
thinking vision trying
I wouldn't claim to know what another person is thinking. I can imagine it, but it's my interpretation, and I try to make that clear. It's my vision of what I think their life is. I don't think there are empirical truths in that regard.
meaningful heart thinking
I think I have some very meaningful relationships with people; we all do. At the same time, I recognize that everyone is following their own heart; there's been people who have left my life, and I don't have a problem with that. This is a transitory world; we're all spirits just looking for love and finding it and holding on.
response separate song
Sometimes I feel like I finish a song, and there's another song that I have to write in response to that song. Each is like its own separate feeling, its own separate universe.
people
A lot of people don't know what it's like to actually be hungry. I do. I've also slept on the streets.
I just write songs whenever I feel like it, whenever they come to me.
art best god guys homer moses powerful shakespeare thank
Thank God we don't know a lot about Shakespeare or Moses or Homer or Lautreamont. These are the best guys we got, and their art is powerful because they're mysterious.
great schooled whether
When you play with great musicians, whether they're schooled or self-taught, they keep you on your toes. It comes down to people's personalities and individual energies.
self play joy
It's just a joy to be able to work with a lot of different musicians. When you play with great musicians, whether they're schooled or self-taught, they keep you on your toes.
