I liked the idea of writing a song saying I'm happy with who I am, and I don't mind if people think I'm some old git.

I don't enjoy being a celebrity, I don't want any part of that or any part of that fame for fame... i'd actually rather die than be a celebrity slime!!!

These days i tend to use one project I do as a kind of offshoot to the next.

I love this idea of shape-shifting and changing when you put on clothes, and turn into somebody else.

I have a long history with Soho: even when I was at art college, I came down to Soho to work in the summer.

So often, the singer is the sound of the record. People think they can cover anything, but the whole voice is the thing that's unrepeatable.

If you were born by the sea, there's always a magnet that draws you back there.
