I can't begin to tell you how much my heart is breaking with what's going on in Louisiana. I haven't even begun to be able to deal with he loss of my mother, and now I'm dealing with the loss of the city my mother grew up in.
I certainly had my God-can-you-just-take-me-now-I've-just-had-it-I'm-checking-out-let-me-off-the-train-I'm-done kind of thing. But, you know, I would never actually do it. I just can't imagine what it would take to do that.

We just did a few takes of a song and just picked the best one. It was real organic and genuine.

change song thinking
Some of their best songs don't have bridges and choruses. So that made me think I should trust my instincts. My songs were okay, I figured. I didn't need to change anything.
mean talking might
Just because I'm talking about something that might have been a sad or painful situation doesn't mean that I'm sad or tortured 24 hours a day any more than anybody else is.
