I live in Santa Barbara. My wife's American, and she lived in England for 11 years and then told me she'd had enough.

The only things we have to worry about are really stupid things.

I didn't write songs for a very long time.

Record covers helped me discover a lot of music that I wasn't aware of.

I tend to like songs that are very emotional, that strike a chord with me emotionally.

I was born with the wrong sign In the wrong house With the wrong ascendancy I took the wrong road That led to The wrong tendencies I was in the wrong place At the wrong time For the wrong reason And the wrong rhyme On the wrong day Of the wrong week Used the wrong method With the wrong technique Wrong Wrong.

I like their darkness but I also like the pop-side of the Velvet Underground.

I love being in the studio. If I'm at home, I will go to the studio pretty much every day anyway. It's just something that I like to do.
