Pop songs are not as graceful as they used to be. Performers today haven't gone through the regimen of learning how to write. And of course, everyone wants to own copyrights. ↗

I've got a collection of songs that I've had, I keep adding to and they're all great American composers. I wanted to showcase American composers and I've done that on a lot of my records and played things by American composers that I really respect. ↗

My songs form a kind of biography or diary of my life as they are about people I have loved and people I only knew in my heart, places I have seen only for a moment and places I have lived all my life. ↗

Some people might go to the gym and swim laps, but I write songs. Every single day, I write something new and record it. ↗

I mean, Tool has a style, but we try to make all our songs sound different from each other. ↗

It's not until I hear songs that I've done, that I realize how much of an inspiration music from the '60s and '70s has been. ↗
