I only put an album out every two or three years.
Paul Weller
Image
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
Image
I saw an interview with Keith Richards. He said, 'How else could a kid in Dartford suddenly connect with and understand what Muddy Waters is singing?' There's a cultural difference, but there's just something in that music that subconsciously or internally you just understand it just makes sense.
Paul Weller
Image
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.
Paul Weller
Image
An artist or writer always has to move forward. All the time you're trying to improve yourself, or at least look at ways to improve things or make things better. I'm not really one to harp on previous records. I'm always looking forward to what I'm doing now, and what's ahead.

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.
Paul Weller
Image
You can listen to music at any moment in the day or night. Which is great, but I think it kind of devalues it as well.
Paul Weller
Image
When you look at so much of what we all love, there's either soul-based to it, or it's the blues. It's really the beginnings of any kind of music. It really is it all starts there. Because after that, it's music of the moment.

Coming from a little suburban town, I wasn't a hip city kid. I was quite the opposite, really. Songs like 'Saturday's Kids' rang a bell for kids all over the country. That song was about the kids I grew up with.
Paul Weller
Image
I want to hear as much music as I possibly can before I leave this mortal coil but it's impossible to hear it all because there's so much of it.
Paul Weller
Image
I'm always looking forward to what I'm doing now, and what's ahead.
Paul Weller
Image
I still want to do what I want to do, but we also have to think about some sense of protecting the business that's out there as well.
Paul Weller
Image
It's a global fashion thing because of the Internet it has gotten really small. It's cluttered, but it's gotten small.
Paul Weller
Image
There have been records I've been really, really pleased with that haven't connected with people. But I felt good about them.
Paul Weller
Image
I never get too many problems. You can never please everyone anyway, obviously. And some people take the easy route and just play the greatest hits, and their audience is happy to hear that as well, and that's fine, but it wouldn't please me. But it doesn't trouble me.
Paul Weller

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
Image
When I'm dead I wanna leave a body of work, like authors or great painters do.
Paul Weller
Image
Sometimes you're ahead of the game and sometimes people don't get it and that's just one of those things you have to accept and carry on.
Paul Weller
Image
Going to college was never an option. I was passionate about music, but how much talent I actually had was another matter.

People say that if you're still angry at 52, you're not an angry young man, just a grumpy old git.
