audience audiences opinion rest shape thinks truly
Their opinion can truly shape what the rest of the audience thinks of you.
alone bathroom cleaned literally maybe playing remember seven sit six stand thinking toilets
I remember playing CBGB and thinking that no one had cleaned the toilets in there for at least six or seven years. Now maybe the women's bathroom is different but in the men's bathroom, you literally wouldn't want to stand there, let alone sit there. I mean, it's horrible.
american-musician excited gap hits itself mind music stretching
In this gap where your mind is stretching itself to keep the music going it hits you as a new music experience. We were excited about it.
american-musician category fantastic hope radiohead records white win yeah
In a way I hope we don't win because there are some fantastic records in the same category like Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Radiohead and White Stripes.
thinking smell ipods
I think the more music becomes something you could simply download and have on your iPod, I think to a lot of people that is plenty, but to some people, they still want these artifacts that are touchable, and you can smell them, and look at them, and hold them and just have other dimensions of experience with this music.
example instagram
Instagram is a great example of you just doing your thing.
thinking animal people
I think I'm really lucky that the things I'm able to love - people, animals - it's like the more you put yourself into it, the more you get out of it.
mean here-i-am wish
Your life, unfortunately - and I mean this - your life is built on when love dies. There's a lot of love in your life that will simply die. And you wish that you died with it, you know? But you don't. And you go, oh, well, here I am.
believe love-is giving
Love is the thing that you pursue because it's the thing that gives you all this life, or you believe that, anyway.
people alive want
I know that is absolutely true for people when they are young - you don't want to be alive if the things that you love in your life aren't there.
thinking lucky lucky-you
I think if you're lucky, you start to make music and it gets things out.
eating-good people creative
Eating good things and being around people who are happy - you want to be influenced by the world because it has so many cool things about it, but it also has a bunch of bad things about it. Being around people who are happy and people who are creative, that's what you do if you're lucky in your life.
asking answers i-can
Maybe there's some unquenchable question that I keep asking the universe that I can't get an answer to.
people decision shy
Occasionally there are people who are not like me, and I forget that they're more introverted or shy, or just don't want to make a decision so quickly.
