men artist quality
Artists shouldn't be made famous. They have this huge aura of almost god-like quality about them, just because their craft makes a lot of money. And at the same time it is a forced importance...It is man-made so the press can feed off it.

Chips of plutonium are twinkling in every lung,
thinking roots admirer
It's not that I don't like American pop; I'm a huge admirer of it, but I think my roots came from a very English and Irish base. Is it all sort of totally non-American sounding.
culture sense-of-humor comedy
Comedy is a very big part of the English culture, the sense of humor; it's a very dominant trait.
world music-is bits
To say that you like music is a bit like saying youlike the whole world.
simple pieces want
Music is like comedy in that you can enjoy a very - for want of abetter word - sophisticated classical piece as much as you enjoy something that's very simple pop.
artist decision albums
I'd become very involved in the production, so the albums were taking longer. So it was never a deliberate decision not to do live shows. A few times, I've thought about doing them again, but it's just kind of never happened. I've just sort of gone the path of becoming a recording artist I guess.
thinking comedy sense-of-humor
I love comedy. I like to think that there's a sense of humor in some of my music - obviously not all of it.
pops states pop-music
Some of the best pop music ever has come out of the States.
writing
Whatever is going on in your life when you're writing has to somehow seep into your work.
art thinking people
I think comedy and music are both things that we need as human beings. I think that both art forms can touch people.
play numbers language
Numbers are really fascinating things, and they do play a big part in our lives. They are a language of their own.
song nice compliment
Maybe if my songs feel personal, that's very nice. I like that. I take that as a great compliment.
brother thinking two
I think I was just lucky to be brought up in a very musical family. My two older brothers were, and still are, very musical and very creative, and music was a big part of my life from a very young age, so it is quite natural for me to become involved in music in the way that I did.
