I hate dancing.

The one thing about songwriting that's been consistent is that I do it for the love of a good melody.

I really like the cute Beatles, the beginning. I don't really like the moustached Beatles very much. And then the hippie Beatles I'm not super-thrilled with, although they had good songs.

I'm not an amazing engineer; I'm just super basic. I'm pretty cavalier about it - I stick the mic wherever it sounds good.

I grew up around religious and elevator music. I didn't know any better, so I just thought music was kind of bland. So I didn't listen to much as kid.

Honestly, it's hard to play with a lot of intensity night after night.

One thing I learned is that I don't want to be in an all-girl band again. Besides, most of my friends are guys, anyway.

I gravitated toward photography. That's what I really did well.

I really liked the Sex Pistols when they came out and I thought they had a lot of melody.
