I've always been a loner, and I've spent most of my life as a single person.
I find myself a fascinating subject.
I'm a damaged person, but I have hope and a will to not give up.
Although I'm a huge fan of Ben Kweller, I don't think I'd cover one of his songs, simply because there's just so much of my own stuff I wanna do.
I like visiting LA, but I wouldn't want to live there.
The first kiss between two people is something really good in life.
When I did have a little bit of commercial success, it really didn't suit my temperament at all. I'm a terrible public person.
The way I see it, all the popular singers are strippers.
Human relations, I mess them up, and they let me down.
I'm totally committed to the cause of individuality. That's the only thing I stand by: independence.
I've been embarrassing myself publicly for over 20 years. Why should I stop now?
I don't believe songs that try to say everything in a simple slogan.
I don't have anything to prove anymore. I don't have a record deal, no one has any expectations, I'm in a position of freedom. I don't need anyone's approval.
For a long time, music was hope. Now it seems music isn't enough to make me happy. It used to be that's all I needed to keep going. Now I need other things to take up the other parts of my life.
