I'd like to write some songs that are so good that nobody understands them. Not even myself.
Everyone has his own sound. I'm not going to presume how to tell anybody how to write.
Nobody writes like Nabokov; nobody ever will. What I would give to write one sentence like Vladimir!
The thing is, in English I'm able to write the lyrics as I'm making the song, once I'm done with the melody.
I didn't know how to write a novel, so I sort of let it happen in waves. The only way I could write it was to think like scenes in a movie.
I've written songs about things that nobody else has ever written about.
Nobody's ever gonna accuse me of being a singer, but I can sing.
I don't know many singers who actually do like the sound of their own voice.
I write songs about real things... The subject dictates the mood and it goes from there, really.
