I divorce myself from listeners who aren’t tolerant of humor. I did notice universally that, especially when it comes to weight, people look in the mirror and get the angle just right, tell themselves it’s all right, and then they go out.

I start songs all the time. If I weren’t so lazy, I would finish them. It’s like when I have a deadline I have to.

I think a lot of good directors listen to music while they’re working. The songs just don’t become a part of the film. They’re replaced.

I’m not really a strange person or anything, so if there’s music I like, usually there’s other people who like it too.

Everything I write is personal, really. Even when I’m sarcastic, it’s quite personal. And on this record, from the production to the singing to the performances, I got it really honest.
