Tim Finn Quotes

I'm better at self editing, especially with the lyrics. It's subtle, but there's nothing I can point to. It would be quite easy for me to cull the songs from my past that I thought worked and songs that didn't work. After a few decades of [song writing], that seems to sharpen things up a bit. I hope I don't get to a point where I put a song out there and it doesn't work. So I'm more thorough and a better editor of my own work now, otherwise the process is exactly the same as it always was. I still sit down at the piano, I still sit down on the acoustic guitar and basically strum away and hit away until something comes.

The Maori people particularly honor reggae music in a very big way. So there is a strong reggae scene and a strong hip-hop scene, especially among Samoans. There's still plenty of quirky stuff around. No one expects to make much money here, so it definitely does encourage an underground sense.
