Brendon Urie

I've always wanted to do a cutesy little song with a guy and girl singing back and forth and thought that Regina Spektor would be kind of cool for that. I love her voice. She's an amazing musician.

One of the most frustrating parts about songwriting for me is production, but it makes me want to get better at it and ends up being one of the most rewarding parts of it.

Some of my favourite record and album covers and stuff have all been the singer, and they create a character, and they dress up a little bit.

My own theory is that we are in the middle of a dramatic and broad technological and economic shift in which software companies are poised to take over large swathes of the economy.

I don't like to get in front of people.

I'm always writing lyrics. I have so many lyrics on so many stray pieces of paper. Everywhere.
