If you suffer from depression, anything that makes you feel has to the most important thing in your life, because it's the only thing that can save you.

I really, really love music. I'm affected by it and uplifted by it, and made to laugh and cry, and almost fall in love with the person who has made me feel so brilliant and communicated so profoundly to me.

I absolutely hate Take That, East 17, the Spice Girls.

I consider the Stooges to be pop music.

I watched my mother waste her life on housework and swore I'd never do that. Dave does the cooking.

Music bypasses the intellect, it makes you laugh, makes you cry, makes you want to dance, makes you want to have sex.

I'm absolutely obsessed with The Jesus And Mary Chain and Patti Smith, but I'm a massive pop fan. I love pop culture, It's a total reflection of the zeitgeist.
