• The first ones I played were in New York at Joe's Pub; I played four shows, but I did something like 30 interviews and a couple radio shows in the mornings and completely blew out my voice. It kind of sucked.

• Antes ponía la voz por encima y lo iba componiendo. Ahora empiezo con las voces y las partes de cuerda que escribo; la batería es como una ocurrencia tardía. Y quién sabe, quizá acabe aburriéndome, pero ahora mismo es la forma más interesante para mí.

• You look back and see pictures of yourself, or hear an old song, and you know where that came from or why you were working on that - but you don't want to do that again. You don't necessarily hate it, but you're a very different person now, so, in that way you do.

• The funny thing is that the studio that we recorded in was the same studio that Frank Sinatra and Bing Crosby and Nat King Cole used to warm up their voices in before they went across the street to CBS Radio. The owner has preserved it exactly the way it was in 1925. It was such a perfect coincidence that we were doing music inspired by that stuff in that room. It was incredible.

• Sentí que podía llamarlo Black Hours. Podría ser fácilmente el disco más deprimente jamás escrito, pero como hay una sensación de diversión en todo el disco, sentí que podía salirme con la mía. Como en "5 A.M.", una canción en tono menor en la que no dejo de lamentarme y que podría haber sido una depresión, pero no lo es.

• I'm always writing music. I sort of do it obsessively, for good or for bad. It's good that it keeps me going, but it's bad because it really is sort of like an obsession where you can't stop sometimes and it'll keep you up at night and ruin your weekend.

• I was writing music when we finished the last Walkmen record, Heaven, and a few of these songs may have even been started before Heaven was done. With The Walkmen we all wrote a lot of stuff alone, but then we'd start collaborating with each other.
