The Jam were a good band, however I feel that the Style Council were better. A lot of people I know will disagree with me. Some things we did with The Style Council were misinterpreted or over their heads.

I'm definitely obsessed about artists and the type of music and the playing and the tone and all that kind of thing - I'm not obsessed about what the best Beatles album is. I just think if The Beatles are great, they're great.

You have to keep challenging yourself. I've always tried to do that, and I'm not saying I've always been successful. Maybe I've rewritten the same song it's inevitable, but I've always been mindful of taking the writing somewhere else. You can't stick in your little comfort zone.

I love the Kinks, but I like all sorts of music. If I stay at home at night and play records, I just go through the whole spectrum, really. I just love music.

I get bored quickly. I kind of take my hat off to bands who have been around for a long time and still do the same thing, because it's hard to keep a band together for decades. But I couldn't do that. I couldn't play the same songs night after night or just trade on my past glories, because it wouldn't interest me as a person.

There have been records I've been really, really pleased with that haven't connected with people. But I felt good about them.

There are so many artists who get to my age that get comfortable and just stick in a groove, and I really don't want to do that.
Paul Weller

It is nice to make a record and people like it, and it's encouraging.

The Beatles changed the world. They certainly changed my world, and many, many other individuals as well.

You can't live a lie. You have to follow your heart.

If you take skinny jeans - skinny jeans didn't just happen in the US, they were happening in Japan, they were happening in the UK, they were happening everywhere. Some places a little faster than others. But, if we look at our best sellers in this store, they're the same best sellers that we have in the States.

I suppose I was much more serious-minded in the '70s and '80s.

There's always something in most world folk musics that always seems connected whether it's a bagpipe or a tambura, there's always some sort of drone instrument, and there's always percussion.
Paul Weller

In my old age, my mind gets more open, and I listen to so many different types of music and I guess that all reflects in my work.

I think the world is really small today, and fashion, from that end of it, it's instantaneous everywhere.

If you're making music, you must want to turn other people on to it, whether you're number one in the charts or number 60.

I wanted to make a record that sounded like a continous piece

I think anybody goes through a crisis of confidence from time to time. You have to kind of doubt yourself, sometimes. It's the way forward.
