Song Quotes

When I found music I thought, that's what I want to do, but the idea of it being a job never crossed my mind. I just wanted to be good enough to pick up a guitar at a party, or if I saw a girl I liked, to work up the courage to play a song.

I like to go for a certain over-the-top opulence when naming the drone pieces whereas the song titles are all about concision, I guess. I mean, if I were truly a purist, I'd call things, "Long Piece #27" or "Newest Fast Song", but I enjoy titling and it is helpful at rehearsals or when making set-lists.

What I like about music is the songs you can remember the lines of in a single second. The Beatles, The Rolling Stones... You can remember every line to their songs. But today, how often do you remember any of the lines to songs? I mean, I know that one of the Lily Allen's last albums is called It's Not Me, It's You. But I don't know how the songs go.

I never really liked Minor Threat. Actually, I kind of thought they sucked. And then Daniel came into practice one day and said, 'Oh, let's play a song it's called Minor Threat.' And I just thought, 'I don't want to play that fucking song!' And then I said, 'Yeah, I will do it.' And then we were playing it. And it's, like, grand and I ended loving this song and started listening to more of their stuff. I love them and they are great.
