tunnel. I like writing about things I worry about but having an overall outlook of “it’s cool because we’re going to get through this together”. I never intentionally set out to do that though. It has to do with how my brain works. I get really upset about the current state of politics in the UK and a bunch of different stuff… You spend your whole life worrying about that stuff but if you spend your whole life trying to positively make a change in your own life, that’s all you can do. It’s good to worry about it, but also good to get on with your life. BTS: In our last interview, you mentioned an ACDC song you wish you could have written. Is there another song you would have liked to have written? TW: I really like “Stop This Train” by John Mayer. I love the whole production of it - the way that the snare sounds like a train chugging along. From the songwriting to the production, everything is amazing on that record. BTS: Do you work and write on music while you’re touring? TW: I try to write lyrical ideas down, but I have to admit I’ve been lacking recently. I find that if I’m going to write a song I need no distractions. I need to sit in a room, by myself with a guitar or piano and maybe another person and just think of it. It’s hard with the band around, and we’re drinking beers - it’s so much fun. The idea of sitting in a room trying to write a song while that’s going on is difficult.
