Lots of people say it's the song. For me, it's not always the song - there's something bigger: the spirit of an artist.

I am completely serious. When I decide to do something, I decide to really do it.

For me, the singer is actually the most important element. When I work with someone, it all comes down to whether I like the singer or not.

I do believe in art and commerce coming together.

Men are shallow - we don't remember things like women do. Or we don't bring it up and blurt it out at inappropriate moments. When bridges are trying to be built, we don't detonate them.

I am not a rock producer. I don't see that. I once turned down Guns N' Roses. I don't like shouting. I'm a melody guy. I love great melody.

Lili manages to mix Kate Bush with modern influences to make a beautifully unique sound based around her amazing violin skills and soulful voice.
