Sometimes the song title comes with the songs, other times you just sorta make something up afterwards.

I can see that if this was an album done 10 or 15 years ago we could see we were moving on to some place else.

It was endlessly entertaining, watching people beat each other up. All the little kids in the neighborhood would come and watch... and then we'd beat them up as well.

When we started there was this element of these experiments we were doing where we weren't really sure how the music would play out because the music was all on different players.

Most artists I run into aren't that thrilled with what they do anyway. They are glad to have different versions out there to see which one the audience likes the best.

Anyway, Cat Stevens is never going to make much money out of us.

It really is no different in the way that we make records and shoot music videos. I don't think of the movie as being a great leap out of my current profession.

Our publicist at Warner Brothers is a young guy who has worked so hard for seven years with us and when we saw him backstage he broke down and cried. He couldn't believe it happened. It was seeing him so overcome when we realised how much it really meant.

With out art, without communicating, we wouldn't live beyond 30 because we'd be so sad and depressed.

Music is amazing. There's some metaphysical comfort where it allows you to be isolated and alone while telling you that you are not alone... truly, the only cure for sadness is to share it with someone else.

I embrace the idea that I'm an entertainer.

Most music that you hear is in synch with itself. We were experimenting with the music falling out of synch with itself and even though it is out of synch you mind can still understand what it is meant to be doing.
