I think that a song, when it works, never mind a piece of long form music, even a song is something that speaks to itself but has a language all of its own, ideally.

These days I can really get the strings to snap if I want.

Obviously classical music tends to be stuff that is usually at least a hundred years old.

Religion deals in certainties and philosophy deals more in un-answered questions.

I think that the process of making music is a hard one to describe as well.

Love's stronger than fear and death.

It's funny, when people talk about the 70s I can tell you the year of every album but when it comes to the later efforts I can't remember the exact years, it's funny isn't it?
