Writing good songs and making them sound as fresh and timeless as possible. You know, if you stumble on something new along the way that's great. But I'm not into new sounds just for the sake of it. I'm a songwriter.

I mean, they made their minds up that they wanted to march into someone else's country, and they're going to do it, with their agendas, and that's that.
