Quote

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.

You can't live a lie. You have to follow your heart.
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.
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
Going to college was never an option. I was passionate about music, but how much talent I actually had was another matter.
Paul Weller
Image
It's always good to play New York. The Apollo is a great gig. I loved that.
Paul Weller

Ageism or whatever you want to call it, is a very English phenomenon. You don't get it too much in many other cultures. And no one says it about authors or poets or filmmakers. Oh, they're too old to make films or write books. You know what I mean?
Paul Weller
Image
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.

It can get boring. Not the playing the songs necessarily, or doing the clothes. You know, you need stimulus.
Paul Weller
Image
I could say that 'Exile On Main Street' was my favourite or whatever, but I'm more about the songs and the artists and the sound that they bring.
Paul Weller
Image
I'm so lucky, I'm just really grateful for what I've got around me - children and my wife and everything else.
Paul Weller
Image
The Beatles changed the world. They certainly changed my world, and many, many other individuals as well.
Paul Weller
Image
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.
Paul Weller
Image
The first thing I bought that was really stylish was in 1969 when I was eleven. I saved up for a black, grey and white tie-dye grandad vest. It was too big - they weren't catering for kids my age - and hung off me, but I loved it.

People say that if you're still angry at 52, you're not an angry young man, just a grumpy old git.
Paul Weller
Image
It is nice to make a record and people like it, and it's encouraging.
Paul Weller
Image
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
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.
Paul Weller
Image
In the past we used to come over to see what was going on in London or Paris or Milan or wherever - it's pretty much the same stuff everywhere [now], and people are wearing the same things, because it's all instantaneous with the Internet.
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'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.
