Anyone can rehearse and play constantly any song in the world.

I don't want The Cure to fizzle out doing 45-minute shows of greatest hits. That would be awful for our legacy.

I am very self-conscious a lot of the time.

I still frequent my parents' house. I go there to escape, back to the bedroom that I grew up in. Just to sit there and feel small.

I had no desire to be famous; I just wanted to make the greatest music ever made. I didn't want anyone to know who I was.

I don't find the technology threatening. A lot of people my age, my generation, find it difficult to immerse themselves. But I would never preclude the idea of using any technology if I thought it suited the end result.

My whole life I've played music for my own personal enjoyment and the idea of it becoming a machine or a business is just horrible.
