Well, The Stuff That Has Become More

I Thought That If I Practiced Doing Melodies For A Year Or So At Home, I Would Learn To Think Melodically, And When I Went To Work It Would Come Out, And It Did, On This Album. What Else Was Important To Me...? I Spend A Lot Of Time In The Grocery Store, Shopping.

When The 'godfather Of Punk' Thing Started Floatin' Around, It Was, I Was Really, Really Embarrassed. I Thought I Should Have A Great, Big Rig And A Cape And Everything, And It Was Very Embarrassing. And Then After A While, You Learn That If People Call You Anything, This Is A Great Gift.

I'd Have A Few On And Off, But The Commitment Was Always More On The Girls' Part Than On Mine, To Be Perfectly Honest. So, I Met A Girl In Tokyo, On My Japanese Tour, With Whom I've Been Living Ever Since, Very Happily. Her Name Is Suchi.

I Thought, "wow, It Sounds Really Stoned Anyway." It Sounded Good To Me. I Found Out That There Was A Lot In There. What All This Comes Down To Is I Was Just Trying To Get In Touch With Myself. And I Met Some Interesting People In New York Who Weren't In Show Business. I Even Got To Know My Dentist.
