Love Is Not A Magic Gravity That

Sometimes You Just Have To Say, “...i Don't Know What We Are Doing, Let's Just Go And See What Happens.” You Have To Embrace The Experience Itself, So That Things You Didn't Intend To Happen Can Make Your Work More Authentic. And You Have To Hope That It Works.

We Wouldn't Be Artists, Writers, Painters, Musicians, If We Weren't Sensitive.

I Call It "being Interrupted By Success." We Had Done The Soft Bulletin, Which Came Out In 1999, And We Knew We That Were Gonna Make Another Record Before Too Long. But In Between This, We Were Still In This Mode Of Kind Of Just - Not Re-creating What We Could Be, But Kind Of Doing Different Things. For The Longest Time In The Flaming Lips We Were Like, "make A Record, Go On Tour. Come Back, Make Another Record," And You Know, I Think, Frankly, We Were Kind Of Like, "there's More To Life Than Just Recording Records And Going On Tour."

Sometimes The Song Title Comes With The Songs, Other Times You Just Sorta Make Something Up Afterwards.

Without Art, Without Communicating, We Wouldn't Live Beyond 30 Because We'd Be So Sad And Depressed.
