I didn't want to play these people any more songs and have them say that they weren't good enough. So my response was to just not be able to write anymore. I know that's not the healthiest of responses.

It really doesn't matter to me what people say about me anymore.

I wanted to try to write songs on the piano to get a different flavor.

It's more important for me to have a good record with good music and be part of a movie that's good and where the music is used in a really great way. That's the important thing. The other stuff you want to say about it, I don't care.

You know what, the drummer is my manager. He's busy. And I'm busy. I don't need the dough, though. But having said that, there's a limit to how much bad music I wanna play. I did it when I was young, and some of the music was OK, but it wasn't great.

There's a song called 'Frankenstein' (from 1995's 'I'm With Stupid') that people seem to request a lot so we thought we'd give that a whirl.
