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.

More quotes by Paul Weller
I think part of what we do is there is a bit of dandy influence, always, or a little sprinkle of it. Not literal Savile Row dandy, but there's a bit of sartorial dandiness in everything that we do - every collection that we do.
Paul Weller
A lot of young artists and musicians that we work with, you think they're gonna want to come in and buy the rock star-looking leather jacket - whatever it is that you think they're gonna want. They all want a suit. They want a tuxedo jacket, they want a suit. They don't want to look like their dad in it, but they want a suit.
Paul Weller
I'm still a mod, I'll always be a mod, you can bury me a mod.
Paul Weller
You can't live a lie. You have to follow your heart.
Paul Weller
I have to do what I'm doing at the time. That's the most important thing. You might lose some people along the way, and you might gain other people on the way, that's just the way it is. But nevertheless, if you're driven by something, there is no argument about it that's what you have to do.
Paul Weller
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.
Paul Weller
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
No man should have cowboys boots in his wardrobe. That's fair enough, isn't it? Unless you're a cowboy, of course.
Paul Weller
There's such a wealth of great music, clothes or whatever. There is so much great stuff out there, that why would you not still be interested if you've grown up in that kind of culture?
Paul Weller
Going to college was never an option. I was passionate about music, but how much talent I actually had was another matter.
Paul Weller
I really enjoy playing America. I like the audiences there. It's the home of a lot of music I grew up with.
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.
Paul Weller
I love soul music, that's my real love in life and in whatever shape or form it is.
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.
Paul Weller
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
It is nice to make a record and people like it, and it's encouraging.
Paul Weller
If you're into a certain band, you're into the way they dress.
Paul Weller
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.
Paul Weller
The '40s were quite austere and super glamorous.
Paul Weller
I think the world is really small today, and fashion, from that end of it, it's instantaneous everywhere.
Paul Weller
