I'd always need a creative outlet. But sometimes, I do fantasize what my life would be like if I weren't famous.
I meet people who are in movies, and the stuff that they write is terrible, but nobody tells them that because they're famous. So I worry that my stuff might be like that, too.
Today, computers help us making the music. It's really a tool.
Obviously for some people there is a big connection between music and the way you can create a space.
