When you sit down to write something, there should be no guidelines. The main idea is not supposed to be, 'How many different ways can we sell it?' That's so far away from the true spirit of what music is.
Music is real. It affects people; it's real.
A strong spirit transcends rules.
Most people don't want to talk about politics and religion. They say, 'Let's talk about something else.'
When I started playing music, people weren't selling 5 million records. That was not the standard; that was not the focus.
Just sharing music with each other - that's cool. It's the selling that becomes the problem.
