I Don't Write Poems And Put Them

I Don't Know If It's Cool To Say This Anymore, But I Grew Up Listening To Gary Glitter. A Majority Of His Songs Were In That Shuffle-blues Beat, And I Think That's Probably Why I Tend To Write Like That.

When I Write A Song, I Always Start On Acoustic Guitar, Because That's A Good Test Of A Song, When It's Really Open And Bare. You Can Often Mislead Yourself If You Start With Computers And Samples And Programming Because You Can Disguise A Bad Song.

Music Is Really All About Experimentation And Lots Of Trial And Error. It's Just Mind-numbingly Boring Until You Hit On Something That Works Well.

England Never Felt Claustrophobic For Me At All. I Think It Would Feel More Difficult For Me If I Lived In Mainland Europe. America I Think Is Really Easy Because Los Angeles Has Film Stars Everywhere And Musicians And Santa Barbara A Lot Of People Have Homes There Even If They Don't Live There. You Are Kind Of Inconsequential, No One Cares.
