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.

More quotes by Marc Almond
You can't keep pursuing pop success, and chasing the past.
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
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
I think there's always been singers like that and i've done my fair share of cheese as well.
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
I'm often prone to self-doubt about everything I do.
Marc Almond
I made a creativity out of that messiness.
Marc Almond
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
I like situations that force me to rethink things.
Marc Almond
The weird thing was that Soft Cell was supposed to have come and gone before I started the album.
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 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
People always go on about sleaze, but I think it's only a small part of what I write about.
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 think in the past I think I probably was a little too diverse, probably went from one spectrum to the complete opposite and confusing people.
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
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
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
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
I thought, I'm in my late 50s now, am I ever gonna get the chance to do another album again?
Marc Almond
