When i was growing up, albums were my closest friends, as sad as that may sound - joy division's 'closer,' or echo and the bunnymen's 'heaven up here'... i had a more intimate relationship with those records than i did with most of the people in my life.

Yes, i am sad, sad as a circus-lioness, sad as an eagle without wings, sad as a violin with only one string and that one broken, sad as a woman who is growing old. sad, sad, sad.

Guy picciotto had a really sound point: live albums basically have bands playing songs that are available on studio records, and what example can you think of where the live album is better? what are the great live albums? i have live albums of bands, but i wouldn't listen to them for the most part. so we thought, instead of spending energy trying to puzzle out how to create a live record, let's just write another studio record.
Song Writing Thinking
I find the fact that so few people buy albums to be strangely emancipating. there's absolutely no reason for 99% of musicians making albums to think about actually selling albums. so as a musician you can just make an album for the love of making albums.

Joy is what makes life worth living, but for many joy seems hard to find. they complain that their lives are sorrowful and depressing. what then brings the joy we so much desire? are some people just lucky, while others have run out of luck? strange as it may sound, we can choose joy. two people can be part of the same event, but one may choose to live it quite differently than the other. one may choose to trust that what happened, painful as it may be, holds a promise. the other may choose despair and be destroyed by it. what makes us human is precisely this freedom of choice.

I have always thought that heaven is a place for people who had had a good life, but that is not true. god is merciful and way too good to make it so. the heaven is just a place for people who could not be really happy while living on earth. i was once told that people who commit suicide are taken back on earth to repeat life from the very beginning because if they did not like it once, it did not mean they would not like it the next time. but those who did not fit in on earth at all, ended up here. everyone comes to heaven in their own way.

First of all, i've been having a wonderful run of luck with cover albums, songs i didn't write. i had five pop cover albums and two christmas albums, and they were all very successful.

In the tale, in the telling, we are all one blood. take the tale in your teeth, then, and bite till the blood runs, hoping it's not poison; and we will all come to the end together, and even to the beginning: living, as we do, in the middle.

I'm actually cautiously optimistic that donald trump will be so bad that he will force america to wake up and realise that forcing america to vote for right wing republicans is always a terrible idea. it's never been a good idea, but what happened here is you have a president like obama who gives you eight years of relative stability and prosperity, and people forget that republicans are just terrible, not just for the country but for the planet. maybe this is america's equivalent of bottoming out, like a crystal meth addict going on one last big run before they have to get sober.

The british people rejected politics as usual and government as usual. they want and need a new approach to running this country.

A scary movie puts a lot of people, a mob, in one place. there are advantages to that because the panic runs through the audience. if it's a good movie, the fear jumps from one person to the next. you can find yourself screaming just because everybody around you is screaming. there's a real atmosphere of terror. it's also visual, which means that you can't look away from this thing - it's happening. you're in the dark. it's like a nightmare. it's like a dream. it's very, very visual. it works on all those levels.
