Quote

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.

I really enjoy playing America. I like the audiences there. It's the home of a lot of music I grew up with.

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

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.

In all honesty, I don't know what one song can change.
Paul Weller

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 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.

In my world [of fashion] there's more things that kind of affect it. There's the retailers we do business with, our own stores, my merchandising team... Everybody has opinions, and so you definitely have to filter through a lot.

I never, ever wanted to be the Rolling Stones. Bless their hearts, but I dont necessarily want to go on doing the same old thing for the next 10, 20 years... I could see how easy it is to get into that rut, the whole touring mindset.

I love soul music, that's my real love in life and in whatever shape or form it is.
Paul Weller
Image
It's always good to play New York. The Apollo is a great gig. I loved that.
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
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.
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
Going to college was never an option. I was passionate about music, but how much talent I actually had was another matter.

If you're into a certain band, you're into the way they dress.

I'm still a mod, I'll always be a mod, you can bury me a mod.
Paul Weller

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

I look for that stimulation constantly. I'm looking for inspiration and stimulation. Not bored with what we've done.
