When I sit down to write a song, it’s a kind of improvisation, but I formalize it a bit to get it into the studio, and when I step up to a microphone, I have a vague idea of what I’m about to do Picture Quote #1

We’re all idiots when we’re young. We don’t think we are, but we are. So we should be Picture Quote #1

I resent having witnessed the survival of some very mediocre male actors and the professional demise of the very brilliant female ones Picture Quote #1

My job of being a musician in a recording studio has nothing to do with being a musician being on tour performing Picture Quote #1

What sounds good on the radio is really loud kick drums and loud snare drums, when everything’s bombastic and in your face. It’s the equivalent of a houseguest who screams all the time Picture Quote #1

Every time I get in the studio, I feel like I wanna have some fun. My fun is not doing the easy work. My fun is doing what’s me Picture Quote #1

I rarely listen to commercial radio, and when I do, I’m shocked by how many ads there are, and how annoying they are, and how bad the radio station usually is Picture Quote #1

I’ll only retire in the day I should be dead and they have me buried, and some idiot spell over my casket some stupid gospel stuff Picture Quote #1

I love hearing my song on the radio the first time, but when it comes on again, I change the station. I already have so much of the spotlight on me. I don’t need any more Picture Quote #1

I’ve got my own studio, so I sit in my studio writing and if I get a great take, that’s the take Picture Quote #1

The program director at a radio station, by the way, is not the superstar. If he was a superstar, he’d be out creating songs, but he’s not. But he wants to act like he has control and power Picture Quote #1

Cambridge was a joy. Tediously. People reading books in a posh place. It was my fantasy. I loved it. I miss it still Picture Quote #1

The truth of it is that every singer out there with songs on the radio is raising the next generation, so make your words count Picture Quote #1

I don’t like to feel like I’m in a club when I’m in my car and I turn on the radio. Anything that ceases to be a song and just sounds like house music kind of stresses me out Picture Quote #1

I once went on the most grueling radio tour. Living in hotel rooms, sleeping in the backs of rental cars as my mom drove to three different cities in one day Picture Quote #1

I feel like when I’m on stage, when I’m writing songs, singing songs, I’m in the studio, I’m shooting videos, I kind of get to become this character, and I can make that whatever I want to make that Picture Quote #1

Each multiplex has screens allocated to each studio. The screens need filling. Studios have to create product to fill their screen, and the amount of good product is limited Picture Quote #1

I think it’s always important for academics to study popular culture, even if the thing they are studying is idiotic. If it’s successful or made a dent in culture, then it is worthy of study to find out why Picture Quote #1

I kept a diary right after I was born. Day 1: Tired from the move. Day 2: Everyone thinks I’m an idiot Picture Quote #1

Jim said that bees won’t sting idiots, but I didn’t believe that, because I tried them lots of times myself and they wouldn’t sting me Picture Quote #1

Beginnings are sudden, but also insidious. They creep up on you sideways, they keep to the shadows, they lurk unrecognized. Then, later, they spring Picture Quote #1

I was studying the sky like I was an astronomer, except it was daytime and I didn’t have a telescope, so I was just an idiot Picture Quote #1

Somebody just gave me a shower radio. Thanks a lot. Do you really want music in the shower? I guess there’s no better place to dance than a slick surface next to a glass door Picture Quote #1

For what I always hated and detested and cursed above all things was this contentment, this healthiness and comfort, this carefully preserved optimism of the middle classes, this fat and prosperous brood of mediocrity Picture Quote #1

Nobody means to get carried away in mediocrity, but it happens, it happens unless you think about everything you do, unless you make every choice the best one you know how to make Picture Quote #1

Everything was for tomorrow, but tomorrow never came. The present was only a bridge and on this bridge they are still groaning, as the world groans, and not one idiot ever thinks of blowing up the bridge Picture Quote #1
