This new collection of songs is more of an "broadly accessible" kind of thing, which is another way of saying "I'm selling the fuck out and I want to appeal to everybody."

Well, not really. As long as it's not written to specifically sell clothing and soft drinks, pop rock is cool by me. A lot of my favourite bands could probably be classed as pop rock - The Beatles, Queen, The Police etc. There's always been a side to me that wants to write grandiose, epic classically inspired 15 minute opuses, but there's another side to me that just wants to fit in, y'know?

I don't really know too much about the purpose of music, I don't know if it's more for the listener, or more for the creator. I guess it's a balance of both, but I know nothing about where the two extremes meet, or how they should meet. And in all honesty, I hope I never figure it out.
