artist faults albums
I could find faults with all my albums because that's just a part of being an artist - it's hard being a human being, isn't it?
thinking long people
I don't think a lot of people listen to their old stuff, do they? I spent a long time making it, so I don't really want to spend much time listening to it again.
would-be tape tools
I like to work with a combination of analog and Pro Tools. I love the sound of analog tape, but there's so many things you can do with Pro Tools that would be incredibly difficult and very time-consuming with analog.
computer dramatic obvious
It was obvious that computers were going to become more a part of our lives, and they will continue to unless something dramatic happens to change that.
thinking expression different
I think each album does have a different energy, otherwise you'd be doing the same thing again and not experimenting anew... Albums are such autobiographical material, not in the material but as an expression of what you're like at the time.
mother brother playing-music
Irish folk is probably the biggest influence musically that I've ever had. My mother's Irish. And when I was very young, both my brothers were very into traditional music, English and Irish. They were always playing music, so I was always brought up with it.
song writing might
It's funny when you write a song - it's easy for me now - but there's almost a second stage where you take control of the song. You start writing it, and if you're not careful, it just finishes itself and it might not be what you wanted. It's very strange, it takes over itself. It has its own life.
art thinking play
I don't really listen to my old stuff, but on occasion, I would either hear a track on the radio or a friend might play me one, and there was generally a bit of an edgy sound to it, which was mainly due to the digital equipment that we were using, which was state of the art at the time - and I think everyone felt pressured to be working that way.
fun thinking joy
I love words, I think they're fascinating and incredibly wonderful things and part of the joy of my work is that I not only get to work with music but also with words. Sometimes it's a difficult process but a lot of the time it's really fun.
girl thinking lucky
I wasnt an easy, happy-go-lucky girl because I used to think about everything so much, and I think I probably still do.
past thinking dense
Don't ever think that you can't change the past.
powerful thinking snow
I think snow is so evocative and has such a powerful atmosphere.
love giving ends
We let it in, we give it out, and in the end what's it all about? It must be love.
magic follow-me
There is magic within, there is magic without. Follow me and you'll learn just what life's all about.
