The sound waves are vibrations, ... It's the ability to readjust your senses so you can feel the music.

I like to think of the senses as having a volume control in the brain. The volume turns up on all the other senses when you lose one.

What's exciting is the ability to reach a large audience with this music, and have people who may be casual fans of The Beach Boys to realize that there's not just some fun songs there, but a major and important artist at work,

When I first talked about writing with Saul he insisted on the ability to change, to get a serious grip on what was real in your life, ... He was the 20th century's literary wizard, who fused the intellect and the imagination in glorious and comic language that we'd never heard before.

I really liked the idea of including the music because it gives it sort of an ambience and it gives us a world in a way that costumes and lights and stuff can't.

I have a great faith in every generation's ability to come up with its own music.
