You Write A Scene, And It Works

I Lost My Innocence With Johnny Cash. I Used To Watch The Johnny Cash Show On Television In Wangaratta When I Was About 9 Or 10 Years Old. At That Stage I Had Really No Idea About Rock'n'roll. I Watched Him And From That Point I Saw That Music Could Be An Evil Thing, A Beautiful, Evil Thing.

You Can't Trust An Artist That Just Makes Good Records.

Music Is Storming, Driving, Relentless, Devotional, Slinky, Subtle, Heartbreakingly-beautiful Sounds That, Lyrically, Switch From The Cynical To The Sanguine, The Defeated To The Defiant, Dealing In Love, War, Beauty, Children, Romance, Rejection, Pethedine, Poetry, Panties, God, Auden, Johnny Cash, Cold Potatoes, Too-much-money, Not Enough Money, Writer’s Block, Flowers, Animals And More Flowers. But Maybe I’m Projecting Here.

The Way I Go About Writing Records Is That I Make A Calendar Date To Start The New Record, So I Have Nothing. I Don't Have A Bunch Of Notes That I Bring Into The Office, I Start With Nothing At All.

I Get Criticized For A Lot Of What I Write About, But As Far As I'm Concerned I'm Actually Standing Up And Having A Look At What Goes On In The Minds Of Men, And I Have The Authority To Talk About It Because I'm A Man.
