People take things a little too personal. I write these songs, and they're experiments with thoughts. That's it. I'm not a teacher.

I don't like going to the studio. It just seems too cold. There's no crowd to react to, or share anything with it's just talking into a microphone that's going into a computer.

Image
I wouldn't claim to know what another person is thinking. I can imagine it, but it's my interpretation, and I try to make that clear. It's my vision of what I think their life is. I don't think there are empirical truths in that regard.

I took piano lessons when I was a little kid, but even before that, you're singing in the classroom and wherever. Gosh, children are always singing. But I took music lessons, some choir and things like that at school. I learned how to play the guitar when I was about 13... ancient history.

As it turns out, it's really expensive to make movies, much more than records.

I project love, music and love, and I pray for peace. A good song cuts straight to the heart sometimes it doesn't need to be too many lines - of course, I do love a good story.

I think I like singing when I'm singing live. It's just in the studio when it's a drag.

I don't think I'm a particularly somber human being.
Cass McCombs
Image
It's not my way to talk about my feelings. They're impudent to myself, so it wouldn't make any sense if I tried to explain them to anyone else. I've never been to therapy - not interested in it.

Loneliness is the most compelling force in the universe.

Try to keep your mind. Try not to eat bad, try not to wake up with too bad of a hangover.

It's hard to make out the difference between insults and bad advice.
Cass McCombs
Image
All these biopics and biographies and people gossiping about so-and-so's drug abuse or who's sleeping with who, it's just a bunch of nonsense.
Cass McCombs
Image
I do like the word timeless. That's a great word.
Cass McCombs

It's the stupidest thing of all time, going on tour. It deteriorates the soul, but it's fun.

When I was young, I used to go to Baha'i camp, and they taught me a lot about the equality of religions.

I think I try to do a lot of things to weed out casual fans.

I love being lost! I don't need to control anything. Even with romantic partnerships, I don't need to control anyone. I think I have some very meaningful relationships with people, we all do. At the same time, I recognize that everyone is following their own heart there's been people who have left my life and I don't have a problem with that.

Elvis Presley wore a Star of David and a cross around his neck and, when someone asked him about it, he said, It makes me think. I love that quote. It's simple. It's beautiful. It's true.
