For me, games are as valid an entertainment as TV or film. It's a pretty interesting time to be in the game space.
It started off being chronological, and we tried to get a couple of songs from every period (of my career) that was acoustic, that related to this family of music we're doing. They were the predecessors. They were done when I was very young a lot of them, not all of them, but a lot of them.
It's better to burn out, then to fade away.
It's better to burn out than it is to rust.

It's kind of too bad that people know about this, because it's like, 'The only way he could make a good album is if he had an aneurysm,' or something. I feel a little funny about it, because I know I would have made an album anyway, and I don't feel like I'm slowing down, but these things happen. Yeah, there's a lot of reflection.

We want 'Majestic' to play you just as much as you play it,
I don't think that one day really relates to the next day in life.
I don't think I'm a thorn in the industry, I'm just another part of it.
