I didn't really want to give up music.

But when I started writing songs, I stopped painting completely, and the only art things I do are connected to the career, like album sleeves and, to some extent, posters and things like that.

While it's a great indulgence, it's also very interesting to have three bass players on the same track.
Bryan Ferry
Image
I like to piece together different guitarists, unlikely bedfellows. You have Jonny Greenwood playing next to Nile Rodgers on the same track, so it becomes like an orchestra of sounds.

I don't think I've ever played the Olympia before, but I'm not totally sure.

You can never get silence anywhere nowadays, have you noticed?

Words can be very powerful. I find them very difficult.

It's fabulous when you do that, when you discover somebody who you like, when you kind of feel those feelings, even though he articulates them better.

All those rappers, they're the only glamorous people working in music now. They dress up in these chains of gold, cars, girls and this and that, high-heeled shoes.

I very rarely play the piano at home. Deliberately, so that when I do play it, I love it.
