More quotes by Alex Kapranos

Alex Kapranos
It's very rare that a song falls from your mind complete.
Alex Kapranos
I want to make music that will make the blood surge in your veins, music that will get people up and dance.
Alex Kapranos
Maybe 'Can't Stop Feeling' and 'Turn It On' we'll just release as singles. It's a thing The Beatles used to do which I really loved, the idea of releasing something as a single completely on its own.
Alex Kapranos
The internet is like a gossipy girls' locker room after school, isn't it?
Alex Kapranos
I didn't grasp the basic principle of being a promoter, which was: Put on music but also generate an income. I was on the dole most of the time.
Alex Kapranos
You can always have it better. If you try... [This is the right attitude:] Never to feel [completely] satisfied, always to want to do something better!
