Quotes
For a 6-foot-3 guy with no hair and a whiny voice, I've done all right.

Stay in school. Lie to your teachers, but stay in school.
Say you write a song about a chandelier, and the chandelier gives off light. And the light is the color red and red reminds you of the color you're not supposed to wear around a bull. So you name the song Cow.
Great music completely obliterates any concept of genre
