"Most of my ideals and stuff really come from my mother." — Nick Cave

What you're really after when you see a film or listen to a song is a singular vision, and I'm not sure how much of that you really get in Hollywood.

I don't feel I'm thrown around by the winds of taste and fashion.

I won't go into the details, but I ready myself for the day. I am a high-maintenance type of guy.

I'm a believer. I don't go to church. I don't belong to any particular religion, but I do believe in God. I couldn't write what I write about and be creative without a certain form of belief.
