There’s Always Some Level Of

I Don't Play An Instrument - I Just Write In My Head, And I Usually Hear Fully Formed Songs. 'we Are Young' Turned Out So Much Like It Was In My Head. But It Also Exceeded All My Expectations.

If I Wasn't A Musician I'd Probably Be Like A Meth Addict.

It's As Simple As Finding Something On The Street And Then Writing A Jingle. If I'm Driving And I Have My Turn Signal On And It's Rhythmic, Maybe I Just Write A Song To That.

Van Morrison Is Probably, At This Point In Time, My Biggest Influence As A Vocalist. When We Were Making Our Last Album I Had A Vinyl Copy Of 'veedon Fleece' In The Vocal Booth In Front Of Me, In The Dorky Sense. I Think There Were Candles Around, Which Is Really Tacky, But Hey, I Needed To Channel Van The Man!
