More quotes by Marc Almond
I made a creativity out of that messiness.
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
Albums, with me, have never had an easy birth. Especially when all the songs are self-written songs.
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
If you were born by the sea, there's always a magnet that draws you back there.
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
It's a shame in a way that people come and go with one album.
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 thought, I'm in my late 50s now, am I ever gonna get the chance to do another album again?
Marc Almond
Russia can be quite a dangerous place sometimes, but I never think about it.
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
People always go on about sleaze, but I think it's only a small part of what I write about.
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
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
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 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
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'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'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
There's no such thing as 'I can't do it'.
Marc Almond
