I Love Humanity, I Love The Way

If I Went On 'american Idol,' I Would Definitely Be Kicked Out Immediately.

There Aren't Many Other Labels Who I Can Say Are That Successful, And Can Give Me As Much As 4ad Gives Me, And Still Have Such A Great Roster.

I Think Canadians Make A Lot Of Music Because We're Stuck Inside All The Time.

I Have A Really Weird Relationship With Myself Where I'll Say, "do It, Do It!" And Then, "i Don't Want To Do It Anymore, I Hate Photo Shoots, I'm So Tired Of This!" Or, "i Wrote A Song, And You're Gonna Sing It!" Then, "i Can't Hit The Note." I Want To Be A Behind-the-scenes Producer. I Really Hate Being In Front Of People. But I'm Also Obsessed With Becoming A Pop Star.

One Thing With Montreal Is It's So Cold And Everyone's So Poor And Beer's So Cheap: If You Go To A Show You Have To Brave The Weather To Get There. So You Show Up And Everyone's Soaking Wet - There's A Sense Of 'i Trekked Through Three Feet Of Snow To Get Here!' I Think There's A Kind Of Camaraderie That Arises Out Of That, That's Important To Me As Well.
