More quotes by Marc Almond
If you were born by the sea, there's always a magnet that draws you back there.
Marc Almond
I'm always more interested in trying things that will push me, and I don't care if I fall flat on my face doing it.
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 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 thought, I might not look my best, I've forgotten half the words to my songs and I'm suffering from post-traumatic stress, but I've just got to get out there and do it.
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
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
I thought, I'm in my late 50s now, am I ever gonna get the chance to do another album again?
Marc Almond
So often, the singer is the sound of the record. People think they can cover anything, but the whole voice is the thing that's unrepeatable.
Marc Almond
Russia can be quite a dangerous place sometimes, but I never think about it.
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 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
I'm the most indecisive person in the world. I'll do three versions of a song, then think, Is the demo better?
Marc Almond
I mean whatever I do it's important that I put my stamp on it and keep it in my world, whether I'm doing a dance track or something like the Russian album for example.
Marc Almond
Knowing what I knew about Russia, as much as I loved the music and was fascinated by the songs and the whole idea of it, I knew it would be a very lengthy and frustrating process.
Marc Almond
That's what I like to do, I like to make songs.
Marc Almond
I like situations that force me to rethink things.
Marc Almond
I've got so much I want to do, and not a lot of time to do it in. People say to me, You really shouldn't do so many records, because it actually harms your career.
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
