All Boston songs are fairly difficult to translate to the stage. None of them are especially easy to play or sing.

A good song is a good song, and good musicians can play all different styles Picture Quote #1

There are other kinds of emotional pain that emerge from our own mistaken thinking. As we surrender that pain, we are inviting into our thought system a guide who will lead us to different thoughts. It’s like the song Amazing Grace: I was blind and now I see Picture Quote #1

I fantasise about what the future could be in terms of aesthetic and psychology. It’s the most difficult thing to do because you have to start from the past - your favourite architect, your favourite song - you take it all with you Picture Quote #1

The key thing is to get that one splash - that one song or that one video for a song - that catches people’s eyes. Because it’s all digital content now Picture Quote #1

It’s so important to me that I feel like I’m doing something that’s never been done before, whether that’s in the show, or I’m writing a song. I can exist in this little box here, but I have to do something new with it Picture Quote #1

When I hear other artists talk, they talk about ‘How come radio’s not playing my song?’ Well, you have to look at it under a microscope and know that each station is just trying to do what’s right for their market, and it’s scary for a radio station to add a song that they don’t know how well it’s gonna do for them Picture Quote #1
