The first five albums I did, I tried a little bit of everything. I was trying not to conform at all.
When I first came out with my fans and the wind hit me, I almost took off.
But when our first album came out, I didn't think it was going to sell a lot of records.
When I write a song, it's all about the riff - the riff first, then the words come later.
I always write lyrics first and the rhythm and the melody come from the lyrics. It always comes from the lyrics: words have rhythm and words have melody.
The first comic I ever read was an 'X-Men' themed anti-smoking PSA they gave out in health class when I was about 10.
At first, the tornado is nearly invisible. Against the sky, it's white on white.
I always serve the writer first because I'm English trained, even though I'm American.
I never became a writer for the money. I am a poet first. Even getting published is a miracle for poets.
