“I think of someone like Mariah Carey as a singer.”
“I love the magic of the studio.”
“It's a bit loose and the people in my group have got other groups. They don't have to have a total allegiance to me. I think that's really a bit weird and showing some weird insecurity.”
“Like, Mission Of Burma to me always sounded almost like they were part of the British Arty New Wave. I kind of like that. I like not being able to tell the difference.”
“I've always looked at shoes as being immensely beautiful things.”
“I'm a bit of lunatic with shoes and jackets and jeans. It's just how I am.”
“I think now, more than anytime I can remember, bands are sounding pretty similar whether they're English or American, from Manchester or London... or Leeds or Welsh or Irish.”
“I think a lot of cynicism has dropped away from my shoulders since I stopped drinking.”
“I suppose my little Martin acoustic guitar is quickly becoming a prize possession. It's a lovely guitar. I bought it at the Cambridge Folk Festival in 2001 before I had cleaned up.”
“I had a breakthrough, I think my life just became calmer, I gave up drinking. My priorities changed as I had a young daughter. The group didn't want me to record for the Think Tank album... so I took it as a sign to leave.”
“It's the clothes that influence the music I'm going to play.”
“There are a lot of people who can do it on the guitar and sing at the same time, but I think what is harder is bass players that can play the bass and sing.”
