9 - it is everything

“I bought a piano for my house, a proper nice one – a baby grand. And that was the first thing I wrote on it. And I’m such a shit piano player. I remember this Tom Waits quote from years ago, that what keeps him going as a strong songwriter is his complete ignorance of the instruments he’s using. So everything’s a novelty. That’s one of the reasons I wanted to get into computers and synths because I didn’t understand how the fuck they worked.”
