growing-up rocks would-be
Growing up, I fantasized about being a rock musician and that somehow it would be really easy. I didn't realize that it's so much work.
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.
guitar two piano
I have a piano and a guitar, and I tend to switch back and forth between those two instruments to help me get inspired.
book ideas giving
I like to have books around to give me ideas-to get the verbal part of my brain to start working.
I've always been cool, basically. I was cool in utero.
trying formulas
I try not to do anything by formula.
dream song film
I like songs and film because you can turn your life into a sort of myth or dream.
song art dad
Some people feel that it's controversial if I say that because my dad is known as a political artist. But I don't really believe that he was a political artist. I think some of his songs were political, and I think they were incredible because he was able to make art that was political and that wasn't pedantic. But I think he was unique in being able to do that.

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.
entertainment lucky my-friends
I'm lucky that a lot of my friends are in the entertainment industry
song father play
I was always nervous to play my father's [John Lennon's] songs.
song bridges different
I like songs that have lots of different parts in them, an intro, an outro and a bridge.
dirty water toxic
Natural gas has been sold as clean energy. But when the gas comes from fracturing bedrock with about five million gallons of toxic water per well, the word “clean” takes on a disturbingly Orwellian tone. Don’t be fooled. Fracking for shale gas is in truth dirty energy.
father thinking issues
Anyone who doesn't think the government killed my father either hasn't given the issue much thought, or is insane...
