In a lot of senses, things are definitely changing in my life, and with what's going on around me. But I still feel like the writing process is as intimate as it as before, if not more. Because I need my time more than I had before.

People should know each other because they want to, because they have things in common.

My family life, my adoption - it could be related to the songs, but I think the songs are deeper than that. They're not just about this experience.

Music is the first thing I ever cared greatly about. I've been singing and writing songs since I was six or seven.

If, you know, all your life you're making films or whatever, and somehow along the way you lose meaning in whatever you're doing when you're making the films, they're just not the same as they used to be to you. That doesn't mean your life is over it just means maybe go try to live a different life.
