More quotes by Marc Almond
That's the way I work and one day I won't have the energy to do it, so I think it's always good to make the most of your life and living as much as possible.
Marc Almond
I think there's always been singers like that and i've done my fair share of cheese as well.
Marc Almond
I thinks it really interesting how they throw the world music samples in there. I often wonder what it would be like to do something like that, but use my lyrics and my kind of style.
Marc Almond
That's what I like to do, I like to make songs.
Marc Almond
I was very much a mess, as a person. I'd come from a very turbulent teenage life, with parents who had broken up in a very bad way, and a lot of illness at school.
Marc Almond
When people talk about gender-benders and bracket me with George, I always think I'm not like that. I had more of a rock edge, mixed with the 80s electro.
Marc Almond
The weird thing was that Soft Cell was supposed to have come and gone before I started the album.
Marc Almond

You can't keep pursuing pop success, and chasing the past.
Marc Almond
Sometimes I ask myself, Should I be out in a club? But it's about realising I don't need to be always chasing after being who I was 20 or 30 years ago.
Marc Almond
I'm not one of these people who thinks everything in the past is great and everything modern is terrible. But I do think cities should be a mix of old things and new things.
Marc Almond
I think the older I get the more creative I get, I don't have the distractions that I had when I was younger.
Marc Almond
I don't enjoy being a celebrity, I don't want any part of that or any part of that fame for fame... i'd actually rather die than be a celebrity slime!!!
Marc Almond
I thought, I'm in my late 50s now, am I ever gonna get the chance to do another album again?
Marc Almond
Albums, with me, have never had an easy birth. Especially when all the songs are self-written songs.
Marc Almond
It's a shame in a way that people come and go with one album.
Marc Almond
I can't read music and I'm crap at learning lyrics. Especially since the accident I have memory problems. I can't remember words, names, places.
Marc Almond
For me it always comes down to what is a good song and I'm very old fashioned in the way that I like to make songs that have something classic about them whether you can play them with an orchestra or an electro synthesizer or an acoustic guitar.
Marc Almond
I'm often prone to self-doubt about everything I do.
Marc Almond
On my Instagram, I'm always keeping a record of things being pulled down in Soho and shutters being closed. Every city - and London more than anywhere - has got to be a vibrant mix of all different things. We can't allow it to become a monoculture.
Marc Almond
