I am not a creature of habit.

I am flying back to New York as I write this. I will never forget these wonderful 35 days and I would go back to Copenhagen in a heartbeat to work there again.

When I was five my parents bought me a ukulele for Christmas. I quickly learned how to play it with my father's guidance. Thereafter, my father regularly taught me all the good old fashioned songs.

It is easily overlooked that what is now called vintage was once brand new.

I love Logic Audio and have been using it for years. All my track outputs used to come up on my old board in the same order as in the old Mac G4 - 1 through 32, came up as 1 through 32, for instance.

Fortunately I own a vintage brain, and I am alive and well in the 21st century, still making records, still working at an intense pace and most of all, still having fun doing it.

My father loved people, children and pets.

Now I know what it's like to be a rock star. No, I didn't sleep with 5 groupies at once. But I was interviewed about 45 times in 5 days in 3 cities.

In August most of Europe goes on holiday.

No one else in our family was a professional musician so this took an enormous leap of faith on their part.

Today a record producer is even more involved and is often the production's sole musician, one person playing all the instruments one-by-one.

All I have is me, myself and I and we are all getting really tired of each other.

What great thing would you attempt if you knew you could not fail?

Life is not a spectator sport. If you're going to spend your whole life in the grandstand just watching what goes on, in my opinion you're wasting your life.

The trick of making movies in this culture is how to not give up everything that makes them worthwhile in order to get them made - and that's a tricky balance.

I should wish [Alain Robbe-Grillet] to realize that Guinea exists.

The trouble ain't that there is too many fools, but that the lightning ain't distributed right.

Though friendship is not quick to burn it is explosive stuff.

It's always very daunting to play someone who actually existed. You have to honor that, and be specific and accurate and try to make people believe that you're that guy, which is really hard.

I don't think I've had any great success in predicting politics or social change, nor have I really tried.

I would rather have not gone through any of the litigation that I've had to go through.
