It's a bit embarrassing watching myself, but I couldn't get someone else to play me, that would've been stupid.

The one thing I do find about serious reviews is that usually they tend to have a point, and that's what I find hurt so much about discerning critics. If the reviews hurt they're probably right on some level.

You can't just pay attention to the short term, you just have to keep publishing.
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

I've always been cool, basically. I was cool in utero.
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

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.

I was always nervous to play my father's [John Lennon's] songs.

I like songs that have lots of different parts in them, an intro, an outro and a bridge.
