I Think There's A Certain Numbness In

I Don't Like Those Songs Where You Have To Listen To A Story To Get Into Them. I Don't Want To Have To Pay Attention To Music In That Way, I Just Want It To Hit Me In The Heart And Do What Music's Supposed To Do.

I Am The Captain Of My Pain.

I See It As My Duty In Some Way Is To Be Out In The World As An Australian Putting Forward What I Consider To Be Authentic Australian Music.

There's An Element To Songwriting That I Can't Explain, That Comes From Somewhere Else. I Can't Explain That Dividing Line Between Nothing And Something That Happens Within A Song, Where You Have Absolutely Nothing, And Then Suddenly You Have Something. It's Like The Origin Of The Universe.

There's That Kind Of Song, "whoah Baby, I Love You," Which Doesn't Have A Visual Element, But A Very Strong Emotional Element, And These Are The Great Songs To Me - Those Ones That You Put Them On And They Just Make You Feel Great, Or Whatever.
