What I'll say about that is that I've never put a record out where I'm actually going through things in real time. Like Tragic Kingdom: I wrote that record over a three-year period and then it came out, and then it was, like, two years on tour. It was like this long, drawn out thing.I wrote that song like a couple weeks ago, and then I sat in front of a camera in a dressing room — randomly not making a video, just to do like some video for the screens behind me — and then it went out and it was the video and it's like all very real.It's just nice to do music and have support from everybody. I don't know these people but for whatever [reason] I feel their energy and their love coming back at me and that's really comforting.
