record watched
I've watched the world crash and burn in every sense. I've watched the record industry crash and burn; politically I've watched it crash and burn, financially crash and burn.
records millions sells
Nobody's going to sell 10 million records by not working hard.
house records way
The Daryls House thing has made me into a live musician even more than I ever was, and even in the way I record.
amount call certain companies courage indie outrageous record screw success takes whatever
If you are a superstar, or whatever you want to call yourself, a person who's had outrageous success, and you decide to go indie and tell the record companies to screw themselves? That takes a certain amount of courage. And bullheadedness, really.
home original specialize taking
I specialize in early homes, and what I care about the most is renovating a home and taking it back to its original construction idea.
facets few life lives mostly network rural shows
I've been watching RFD-TV for a few years. As a person who lives mostly in the country, I appreciate a network that shows the many facets of rural life.
typical
The song 'Laughing Down Crying' is not a typical Daryl song.
call stuff total verses
I've always been a spontaneous singer. And all the stuff that you hear on the end of the songs, what they call the ad libs - that just comes out of my head. That's not thought out at all. I have the verses and the choruses, and then after that it's total improvisation.
likes
I've always been a guy who likes to stretch my limits - to find out if I have any, really.
extreme
You externalise extreme emotions, and you look at them objectively and understand them from a different standpoint.
time
Who knows what the right time to get married is?
career funny solo
Having a solo career is a funny thing.
caught diseases fairly four stuff treated
I have four different diseases I'm being treated for, and I got lucky. I caught it fairly early. Neurologically, it does stuff to people. It's really nasty.
advocating crossover music
I'd like to see more crossover between white and black music. That's something I've been advocating for years.
