Adam Anderson Quotes
Music in general is very interpretative, isn’t it? It’s amazing how many songs in history have been misinterpreted but in an amazing way that means something to someone and that’s the beauty of music really, it’s what you make of it. And I think our songs are the same really, they’re no different, and if people pick out lines that mean something in their lives…it’s all we wanted to do: to mean something to people.
