I Find It Magical That A Three-year-old Can Be Mesmerized By Bugs, But So Can A 40-year-old Or An 80-year-old. It's A Great Challenge To See If You Can Appeal To That Huge An Age Range.

Jesus, Music Has Always Been My First Love. I Use Music In My Work Because It's The Fastest Way To An Emotional Place. You Hear A Song, And That Memory Comes Right Back-- You're There... Making Music Is Immediate, And It's All About You. If You're Playing Guitar, The Feeling Comes Through-- The Way You Bend The Note, The Intensity With Which You Hit The Strings. With Making Films, Although It's Real Emotion, It's False Emotion. You're Lying.
