Quote

The whole positioning and atmosphere of the song [King of the Mountain] was to build up this thunderstorm that would take us all onstage off into a story where we were suddenly in the middle of the ocean.

When you'd buy vinyl, you'd have this lovely-sized object with a lovely picture, and you'd read the lyrics and usually there was something artistic that went with it.

When I've heard a piece of music or seen a painting that moves me, it gives me something.

I don't think it's a very nice idea [making biopic] at all. I don't think my life is that interesting.

I'd become very involved in the production, so the albums were taking longer. So it was never a deliberate decision not to do live shows. A few times, I've thought about doing them again, but it's just kind of never happened. I've just sort of gone the path of becoming a recording artist I guess.

I split it up into working on the two narrative pieces that can tell a story. The scariest thing was whether I'd be any good performing live again. It was such a long time since I'd done any live work. It's so different for me than recording. Every night my audiences were what I would dream of. You could just feel their support.

After I've done the salesman bit, I like to be quiet and retreat, because that's whereI write from. I'm a sort of quiet little person.

I think each album does have a different energy, otherwise you'd be doing the same thing again and not experimenting anew... Albums are such autobiographical material, not in the material but as an expression of what you're like at the time.

When I was first writing, I used to sit at the piano and play songs - I'd write one or two a night. It was my hobby. At some point, it then became a process that was mainly done within the context of the studio, and writing became part of the recording process.

However, if I ever were in a position to choose who would play me, I think I'd choose Johnny Depp.

Sometimes people mishear my lyrics and think a song's about something it isn't.

It's not easy putting creative projects together. In my case, it might take a long time and you try to do the best.

My studio is a fantastic combination of old and new, and that's how I've always liked to work.

I think quotes are very dangerous things.

I don't really listen to my old stuff, but on occasion, I would either hear a track on the radio or a friend might play me one, and there was generally a bit of an edgy sound to it, which was mainly due to the digital equipment that we were using, which was state of the art at the time - and I think everyone felt pressured to be working that way.
