In America, it's quite admirable if someone's done well or been successful at whatever it is. Whereas in Britain, they're not. They only like it when you're the underdog.

My filing system's really crap because I can never decide whether to sort things by studio, or year, or where I lived.

I actually prefer it if I don't know what I'm supposed to do. If you've got an equal temperament piano keyboard, then you know what you're going to get if you play certain chords. But I actually like it if you don't know where the notes are, because then you do it intuitively. You're working out a new language, basically. New rules.

There's a lot of melancholy in my tracks.

I've always got to change something. All the tracks I've done in the last five years were made in like six different studios. It gets a bit complicated.

I got a feeling I had loads when I was in primary school, 'cause I had red hair; you know, like Duracell.

It sounds really arrogant, but my music's my favourite music ever. I prefer it to anyone else's.
