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
Image
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
Image
I'm often prone to self-doubt about everything I do.
Marc Almond
Image
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

You can't keep pursuing pop success, and chasing the past.

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!!!

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

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.

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.
Marc Almond
Image
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
Image
I thought, I'm in my late 50s now, am I ever gonna get the chance to do another album again?
Marc Almond
Image
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.

People come from all over the world to see this little place they've seen in movies and read about in history books: Soho.
Marc Almond
Image
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
Image
Soho has got to be at its centre. It's got such a history for rock, pop, poetry, jazz, writers, all those things, and I think it should be valued as such, and protected as this centre for bohemia.
Marc Almond
Image
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
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.
