“I love the conversation between film and music.”

Flying can be such a claustrophobic experience, it’s nice to open that up a bit with music.

I really discovered the almost transcending power of music. And I think that is why I am so into it.

The orchestral or symphonic music never interested me.

Even though music is something I travel around doing, it is also a very private thing. A sort of escapism.

When I’m flying, I really like to listen to piano music. Something impressionistic, loud and beautiful.

This time, I wanted to know if I was able to create images with words, with the sound of words.

I don’t have the feeling of being motivated by anger, revenge or frustration.

I think that’s a good thing when the one who is listening, is feeling it in a different way that the one who creates.

The best thing about Berlin was that I got to be surrounded by people who pursue their ideas for themselves.

I learned that music should be fun and should be a way to express yourself, that there aren’t really any rules.

We are all listening with different perspectives. I don’t want to impose my subjectivity to the listener.

The piano and the singing are two equal things to me – maybe not inseparable but very connected. You can say they are like two equal voices.

On the last album, I didn’t want to disturb the melody with too many stories.

It was more from my own relationship with the instruments at this time, figuring out the instrument and then having to learn different pieces that I really got into music.

There was a band very early on in our class, and I played in that band and as a teenager, I continued.

Sometimes I feel like a melody doesn’t have anything to do with me, but it’s just something that comes, is accumulated from me playing on the piano, and then this little creature just appears.

The pipe draws wisdom from the lips of the philosopher, and shuts up the mouth of the foolish; it generates a style of conversation, contemplative, thoughtful, benevolent, and unaffected.

Even an idle phone conversation when driving takes a 40 percent bite out of your focus and, surprisingly, can have the same effect as being drunk.

People who walk away from you without a clear conversation or a willingness to see your heart decided who you were long time ago. Let them go.

Prayer is a friendly conversation with the One we know loves us.

People who walk away from you without a clear conversation or a willingness to see your heart decided who you were long time ago. Let them go.

You know what’s sexy? A real conversation.

I tried to groan, Help! Help! But the tone that came out was that of polite conversation.

Conversation should be like juggling; up go the balls and plates, up and over, in and out, good solid objects that glitter in the footlights and fall with a bang if you miss them.
