England never felt claustrophobic for me at all. I think it would feel more difficult for me if I lived in mainland Europe. America I think is really easy because Los Angeles has film stars everywhere and musicians and Santa Barbara a lot of people have homes there even if they don't live there. You are kind of inconsequential, no one cares.

Our music over the years has been very cinematic. It's surprising we never really got into film soundtracks.

If you took music out of my life, I don't know what I'd do. It's the one thing that I have a real passion for.

I didn't expect us to be around after 25 years.

Music is really all about experimentation and lots of trial and error. It's just mind-numbingly boring until you hit on something that works well.

If you repeat yourself, then I think you're in danger of losing that fan base, because if you're not interesting yourselves, you're not interesting your audience.

Once I'd chosen the songs, it seemed like it would just be a question then of recording them. But it's a case of trying to re-invent the songs; taking them in different directions.
