Even if I knew that tomorrow the world would go to pieces, I would still plant my apple tree.
Even if one tree falls down it wouldn't affect the entire forest.
Like many kids, I used to pretend all sorts of things. I would climb into a tree and imagine that I was on an island, that the grass below we was an ocean, that the leaves were the fins of sharks. Perhaps unlike many people, I never really stopped. I still have a childlike predisposition to fantasise and share my fantasies.
I think 'The Sunset Tree' is really the album on which I really learned to trust other musicians, which is so important.
Give me six hours to chop down a tree and I will spend the first four sharpening the axe.
