Rob Gordon: All three of us writers, we all experience music autobiographically.

Rob Gordon: I think a lot of people do.

Rob Gordon: So I'll have certain songs that mark certain times in our life and I think we're not rare that way.

Rob Gordon: Like I'll use music as fuel, you know?

Rob Gordon: Not like as inspiration but as fuel like if I need to get into a certain mindset I know there's certain songs that I can turn on that'll just... that's the gas and that'll get me right where I need to go.

Rob Gordon: Or if I need to get out of a certain state put on this song or that song and it just propels you.

Rob Gordon: [Rob's mother starts to cry after Rob tells her over the phone that he and Laura have broken up] I'm okay if that's what's upsetting you...

Rob's Mom: That is NOT what's upsetting me!

Rob Gordon: [Sharply] Well it fuckin' should be, shouldn't it?
