In L.A., you tend to see a lot of people do very bizarre things. I love it.

The truth is, however rich people get, they hate paying tax. Some live abroad for a year, or years at a time just to avoid it. Bizarre really – desperate economic migrants are driven to leave their homeland because of poverty; tax exiles are driven overseas by their wealth.

To be amongst people that know their lines and you’re the only person that doesn’t is just bizarre.
You can’t get anymore classic than being a part of a Disney animated film. To me, that’s something I can have in my back pocket for the rest of my life. I’ll be able to show it to my kids. I’ll be walking around Disneyland, and it’ll be bizarre to shake hands with Rapunzel.

What was bizarre, when I was younger, I never watched TV. I would rather watch a movie 100 times than to watch a TV show, just to find another nuance. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve watched ‘On the Waterfront’, just to find a flaw so that I can learn and try to improve my thing.
My songs used to be significantly more bizarre. I used to play a big electric piano and a loop pedal. I was really into Regina Spektor, and I liked her narrative lyrics that were quite off the wall. I used to layer things up and try and replicate what I’d been doing with my bedroom recordings.
You always have those moments of standing outside your own life and thinking, ‘This is kind of bizarre and quite wonderful.’ And I think those moments always catch you off guard.
