It Really Expresses A Man In Pain.

I Like The Beaches In Orange County The Best. I Think Orange County Has Great Beaches. Everything From Dana Point To Newport To Laguna; All Over The Place.

Even Though It Was January, In Los Angeles It Was Beautiful And Sunny And The Blue Skies Were Out And It Was Hot Everyday, So I Think It Was Just A Product Of Our Environment. And California To Me As A Concept Or As An Idea Always Seems Like Endless Optimism And Endless Opportunity - When People Think Of California They Think Of Palm Trees And Blue Skies And Gorgeous Sunsets And Beaches And Everything Else. But There's Also This Weirdness To California, This Darkness, It's A Place Where People Come To Follow Their Dreams And Sometimes Don't Make It.

When People Are Amped Up, They Listen To More Upbeat, Loud Songs. A Frank Sinatra Album Sets A Certain Mood, Just As A Clash Record Sets Another.

Parents Don't Understand Kids And Kids Don't Understand Parents. My Parents Were Divorced When I Was Really Young And I Went To Live With My Dad.

I Liked Seventeen-year-old Me, I Was Happy When I Was Seventeen. I Was This Troubled Goth Kid That Wore Eyeliner And Make-up To School And Listened To Punk-rock Music And I Loved My Friends And I Started To Make Music - I Like Seventeen-year-old Me.
