I don't think of death in a romantic way anymore.

When you're in a young band for the first time, geographically you're in the same place and you tend to go out and socialize. You play more shows, you spend more time together. You're a unit. As you grow older, inevitably you develop a life outside the band. I think it would be tragic if you didn't.

It's really nice meeting people after a concert. Still, it's very weird to be at the center of a group of 30 people all listening to what you're saying. When that group turns into 300 people, it goes on from weird. Some people revel in it, and I don't.

My earliest memories are sitting on the beach at Blackpool, and I know that if I went back, it would be horrible. I know what Blackpool's like - it's nothing like I imagined it was as a child.

Image
I have never liked Morrissey, and I still don't. I think it's hilarious, actually, what things I've heard about him, what he's really like, and his public persona is so different. He's such an actor.

I wouldn't want to think people doted on us, hung on every word, or wanted to look like us.
Robert Smith
Image
I'm in the strange position of the world drifting away from me, but you know what? I'm actually quite content with that. It doesn't bother me in the slightest. I don't feel like, 'Oh God, I'm being left behind.'

In all relationships, there are always aching holes and that's where the impossible wishes come into it.

I'd like to record somewhere really different. Rent a really big house and get a mobile in and set up in the dining room. Maybe New England it'd be nice in September or October.

If any of our songs ever did make it on the top ten, I'd disband the group immediately.
