We played a festival in Ireland once, and in the middle of 'New Slang,' the Scissor Sisters kicked in across the field on this mega stage. It was a little distracting. It was hard to keep track of what I was supposed to sing.
I know that there are a lot of sort of silly things that one thinks as a music listener about bands. I am a fan of many bands.
My whole goal is to make good records and keep myself inspired and able to accomplish what I need to accomplish.
I most enjoy sitting down with the acoustic guitar and just fiddling around and trying to come up with something like a hook or some sort of melodic line. That's something that I do habitually.
My hope is that one day I'll be able to work and have a quieter life, but still a creative life.
I have the soundtrack for 'A Clockwork Orange,' which is kind of cool. I guess I don't really end up buying a lot of modern soundtracks. Another soundtrack I love is from a French movie called 'Betty Blue.' it has some really melancholy piano work.
