Choice excerpts from today’s interview with A.C. Newman, of The New Pornographers.
Anyone who is doing something creative, they're always chasing something. And a lot of the time you're not even sure what it is you're chasing. That's the best explanation I've ever found for that.
What have you been chasing?
I don't know, maybe some sort of formless happiness? If I could put it into words I would have a number-one hit.
You’re not a porn fan?
No, not particularly. It usually looks like they just fell out of a Skid Row bar. You might as well be jerking off over an anatomy textbook. Which people probably do.
Do you find that married sex is better?
Sure. Infinitely better. What possible answer would I give? Like I'm really going to say, "Things aren't going too well in bed for me now." That'd be the pull quote, right?
