music inspiration writing
For me, songwriting is something that I have to do ritually. I don't just wait for inspiration; I try to write a little bit every day.

Anyone who doesn't think the government killed my father either hasn't given the issue much thought, or is insane...
first-love wonder-woman lasts
Wonder Woman was my first love, and now she’s [Charlotte Kemp Muhl) my last.
song art writing
I wouldn't say the purpose of making art is to enjoy it necessarily. For me, it happens to be the thing I enjoy the most. I don't even know what the purpose of art is really, I just know that is something that makes me feel satisfied in a way that other things don't. That's all I know, that's why I like to write songs and films or draw. I just like to make things and somehow I find it gives me a feeling of satisfaction that I can't find in other areas of my life.

years film feels
I feel that film is inevitably the medium of the future. It has been for years, decades, but more so now than ever.
records produce left
I did a record with a producer, and the good producers eat up the budget, so I didn't have any budget left to produce this record. I had to produce it myself.
song father play
I was always nervous to play my father's [John Lennon's] songs.
giving perspective people
If you give people more perspective of one object, they start to see it more clearly.
