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
Image
I made a creativity out of that messiness.
Marc Almond
Image
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
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'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
Image
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.

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
Image
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
Image
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
Image
That's what I like to do, I like to make songs.
Marc Almond
Image
I like situations that force me to rethink things.
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'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
Image
Russia can be quite a dangerous place sometimes, but I never think about it.
Marc Almond
Image
You can't keep pursuing pop success, and chasing the past.
Marc Almond
Image
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
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
The weird thing was that Soft Cell was supposed to have come and gone before I started the album.
Marc Almond
Image
I think there's always been singers like that and i've done my fair share of cheese as well.
