- [on re-imagining an earlier composition] Once you start playing it, it's amazing how you can put yourself back into that mindset of how you felt when you wrote the song. You can reignite a point-of- view, and a good feeling about playing it, even though initially your instincts said: "Oh, I can't play that song anymore - that's too dated". But you can. You can go home again.
- First of all, when you live in a country like Canada, it's quite different from America in the sense that it's very tied to traditions that were born in Britain.
- I think, basically, the music industry is scattered and in a mess. I think you've got lots of people that are so-called "experts" that have no idea where it's headed.
- Music turned to digital, and suddenly you had the possibility to make things louder than loudest, which boggles the mind but it's true, and what you have are all kinds of different ways of distorting your music.
- I can't remember the first song I learned to play on bass, but the first song I learned to play on guitar was For Your Love by The Yardbirds. That kind of was the beginning for me. I thought it was a great song and I loved the open chord progression at the beginning of that song.
- The first song that made me interested in music was Oh, Pretty Woman by Roy Orbison. It was the guitar intro, that riff, that I really liked and made me listen in a different way.
