I'm Hugely Self-critical In The Morning.

Songs Need To Have The Ability To Change And To Grow For Sure. They Take On Lives Of Their Own. Some Songs Just Don't Have That Capacity. They're Locked Within A Period Of Time. And As Soon As You Take Them Out Of That Period Of Time, They Die Very Quickly.
