Dude, maybe not everyone loves 'Glee.' Me included. I watched 10 minutes and it wasn't my thing. ”

When you have kids, you see life through different eyes. You feel love more deeply and are maybe a little more compassionate. It's inevitable that that would make its way into your songwriting. ”

Neil Young is my hero, and such a great example. You know what that guy has been doing for the past 40 years? Making music. That's what that guy does. Sometimes you pay attention, sometimes you don't. Sometimes he hands it to you, sometimes he keeps it to himself. He's a good man with a beautiful family and wonderful life. ”

When I listen to music these days, and I hear Pro Tools and drums that sound like a machine - it kinda sucks the life out of music. ”

I was at a New Year's Eve party, and someone asked me how was my year, and I said, 'I honestly think 2011 was the best year of my entire life,' and I actually meant it. ”

I have crazy claustrophobic dreams, weird elevator dreams where the elevator closes in and all of a sudden I am lying down - oh my God, it's a casket. Just freaky stuff like that. ”

When I listen to the radio, I just hear so much music that doesn't even sound like people. The vocals are all tuned, and the drums are all fake. ”

I'm not into albums that are meant to sound perfect. ”

The most important thing is that you honor that musical integrity, whether you make music that sounds like ABBA or you make music that sounds like Void. ”
