Ain't it hard when you wake up in the morning, and you find out that those other days are gone... All you have is memories of happiness, lingering on... All your friends and your lovers won't protect you; they're only passing through you in the end... They'll leave you stripped of all that you can get to and wait for you to come back again... But still a light is shining, from that lamp on down the hall... Maybe the Star of Bethlehem wasn't a star at all. |
As I get older, I get smaller. I see other parts of the world I didn't see before. Other points of view. I see outside myself more. |
At our school, we deal with kids who have brain injuries, strokes, cerebral palsy, things like that. I'm very familiar with that. So I was thinking of not being able to do what I do. It didn't freak me out. It just made me think: Now you've got to play this card. Now you're going to do what you can, in the time that you have. |
Better to burn out than rust out. |
Commitments are one of the worst things to have in the music business. They're very annoying. |
For me, games are as valid an entertainment as TV or film. It's a pretty interesting time to be in the game space. |
I don't feel like I'm slowing down, but these things happen, ... Yeah, there's a lot of reflection. It affected all the songs. |
I feel like our religion and our faith have been hijacked. What is bothering me the most is the misappropriation of religion and faith, the misuse of God and the house of worship. It's one faith with different people trying to express it in different ways. It's all about being the little guy in the big world. |
I had a playback party for Homegrown for me and about 10 friends. We were out of our minds. We all listened to the album and Tonight's the Night happened to be on the same reel. So we listened to that too, just for laughs. No comparison. |
I haven't sung it for a long time. I can only do that one with the musicians whom I like to play with. On the (1999) Silver and Gold tour, out of 40 shows, I might have played it three times. |
I just want to play well, share the stage with my friends, let this music have us. |
I never believed in much, but I believed in you |
I think it's a metal version of Phil Ochs and Bob Dylan ... Metal Folk protest? |
I understand we've got like a Bush subordinate in there now. That's unfortunate. But he's got a minority, right? So we can get rid of him pretty soon. |
I'm glad to see it back here. |
