I really like Katy Perry and the music she does. She's an amazing musician and it's an honour to be opening for her in London.

Of course, you have to have a good reputation, especially as an artist, as a musician, so that other musicians would like to play with you.

Musicians ultimately are who they are, they aren't actors, so as a clipmaker you have a responsibility to protect them.

I don't understand how a musician can play 90 minutes on stage and then not dedicate a little bit of time to hang out at their merch table. It's not like digging a ditch or something; you're standing there thanking people for coming out to see you.

I went to Havana, and I was like, "Wow, there's culture everywhere!" That was one thing that I did notice when I went to Cuba was that artists are paid to be artists, and poets are paid to be poets, and musicians are paid to be musicians by the government. The government - and I'm not saying that the Cuban government's perfect - but the government does place a value on culture.

If one were asked to name one musician who came closest to composing without human flaw, I suppose general consensus would choose Johann Sebastian Bach.

As a musician, my job is incredibly easy, and it's a good one, but I've got to work at it occasionally.

I'm just one of these unpopular musicians.

I'm not a martyr, just a musician who dies for your sins. Oh, that's what a martyr is? Very well then, I am a martyr, if you insist.

Richard Wagner, a musician who wrote music which is better than it sounds.
