Marc Almond

I've always loved the rock & roll element to live shows, because whatever else I do, I'm basically a rock/pop performer, and that's what I like.
Marc Almond

The way the business things work in Russia is you have to meet people, you have to go through a certain amount of etiquette and business things are done just simply by a shake of the hand and whether they like you or not.

If you were born by the sea, there's always a magnet that draws you back there.
Marc Almond
Image
I made a creativity out of that messiness.
Marc Almond
Image
I was a magnet for people who want to take advantage of people like me, who think they're part of this life but they're not.
Marc Almond
Image
I like situations that force me to rethink things.
Marc Almond

Russia can be quite a dangerous place sometimes, but I never think about it.
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

That's what I like to do, I like to make songs.
