Musicians, painters, whatever, they have no choice but to describe where they live. Sometimes it may seem hard to keep your ear on the street because there's a lot of stuff you don't want to pick up. But as Bob Dylan said, "He not busy being born is busy dying," and I think the death starts in your record collection. I like to feel alive. I think I'm awake, and this is the noise that keeps me awake.
-- Bono Vox (lead singer of U2)
