The Importance of Being Cool
I started to think that cool itself probably damn near ruined music in my era. People were so much more concerned with being cool than they were, you know, good music sometimes. I remember talking to Alia Smith and he was horrified that people were celebrating the depressive part of his songs. He didn't see him as depressive. It's like these are songs that are getting me through. There's positivity in them. They often made music, good music, despite it.
