I feel like my kind of music is a big pot of different spices. It's a soup with all kinds of ingredients in it.
A first-rate soup is more creative than a second-rate painting.
Bread's so important for me, it makes such a difference. I like it with a lovely bit of cheese on it, sometimes just with butter, or with some fresh soup.
