I knew the second I finished the first record - 'House Of Balloons' - and had all this material leftover that a trilogy would be best.

Me not finishing school - in my head, I still have this insecurity when I'm talking to someone educated.

When people meet me, they say that I'm really kind - contrary to a lot of my music.

I always hated how I looked on camera. I never put a face to my music, which actually made the music that much more mysterious.

'Thursday' is a conceptual album. Whatever that situation was, I spent the whole album focusing on that situation.

I'm all about surprises. If you watch a horror movie, and it's called 'Kiss Land,' it's probably going to be the most terrifying thing you've ever seen in your life.

I feel like I'm the kind of guy that would have kids before getting married. The first thing would be kids.

I make good music for long journeys.

I mean... in life... what relationship is easy?

Music is like film to me.
