For me, songwriting is something that I have to do ritually. I don't just wait for inspiration I try to write a little bit every day.

If the reviews hurt they're probably right on some level.
Sean Lennon

Being famous is having the power to really implement positive change in the world, and it gives you the power to do what you want. I'm really grateful for it because I can play music and people will listen.
Sean Lennon

My tendency is to be very experimental.
Sean Lennon
Image
I do think British tailoring is the best. French people hate me when I say that, but I do think it's true.
Sean Lennon
Image
I'm not that in control of myself that I could be specific about exactly the way I'm doing everything as it happens. I'm just trying my best
Sean Lennon
Image
I like songs that have lots of different parts in them, an intro, an outro and a bridge.
Sean Lennon
Image
I have a piano and a guitar, and I tend to switch back and forth between those two instruments to help me get inspired.
Sean Lennon

My favourite men's clothes are like Victorian British clothing.

Songwriting is kind of like a craft. It's not something that just comes in a dream. You've got to work at it.

Anyone who doesn't think the government killed my father either hasn't given the issue much thought, or is insane.
Sean Lennon
Image
Now Daddy is part of God. I guess when you die you become much more bigger, because you're part of everything.
Sean Lennon
Image
I wouldn't even say Imagine is political. I think it's…more just sort of declaration of humanity. I don't find his political songs to be the ones that I go home and listen to. And I would say that of any artist. They're not the ones that interest…

I was always nervous to play my father's [John Lennon's] songs.
Sean Lennon
Image
I did a record with a producer, and the good producers eat up the budget, so I didn't have any budget left to produce this record. I had to produce it myself.
Sean Lennon
Image
I like music because it's the only invisible art form.
Sean Lennon
Image
We live in a pretty bleak time. I feel that in the air. Everything is uncertain. Everything feels like its on the precipice of some major transformation, whether we like it or not.
Sean Lennon

I'm always surprised that people make such a fuss about Italian tailoring and French design houses. I think traditional British tailoring for men is so good. Everything's the right cut, the fabrics are good.
