Well, It's 15 Years Since Sex, Lies

I've Tried To Get Better About Weighing What I Think The Accessibility Of An Idea Is Against The Cost Of Executing It. I've Tried To Be Smarter About That, Because If You're Not Smart About That, You're Going To Be Unemployed. But I'm Still Mystified About What Works For People. And I'm Not Talking About My Movies, I'm Talking In General. I'm Mystified By The Stuff That Doesn't Work. I'm Mystified By What's Going On In The Critical Side, Too.

Usually I'm Thinking About The Palette. I'm Thinking About The Color For The Most Part, Then I'll Start Thinking About Composition And Movement.

I Have No Shame In Making Music That Maybe, If You Listen To It Long Enough, You'll Realize You've Heard This Or That Part Of It Before. I'm Still Very Excited By An Amazingly Written Song, So That's Really The Thing That I Work On When I Make Records With People.

I Think '60s Are Appealing To Creative People, Because It Seemed To Be A Time Of Endless Possibilities, When The Boundaries Of What Could Be Considered Popular Culture Were Being Expanded Almost By The Week. It Doesn't Feel Like That Anymore. At Times, I Wish It Were So. Radio Is A Perfect Example; Good God, I Mean, Back Then The Most Interesting Songs Were Also Hits, And That's Just Not True Anymore. It Hasn't Been True In A Long Time.
