past thinking opposites
I think in the past I think I probably was a little too diverse, probably went from one spectrum to the complete opposite and confusing people.
mean track important
I mean whatever I do it's important that I put my stamp on it and keep it in my world, whether I'm doing a dance track or something like the Russian album for example.
song ideas knowing
Knowing what I knew about Russia, as much as I loved the music and was fascinated by the songs and the whole idea of it, I knew it would be a very lengthy and frustrating process.
i-can
There's no such thing as 'I can't do it'.
song records want
My next record I really just want it to be a collection of great songs, classic songs in a way.
cells feelings drug
The albums I did around that time probably wouldn't have been the same without Ecstacy. The first three Soft Cell albums... were all really albums that were just done around Ecstacy and the whole E feeling.
good-day thinking one-day
That's the way I work and one day I won't have the energy to do it, so I think it's always good to make the most of your life and living as much as possible.
teenage school broken
I was very much a mess, as a person. I'd come from a very turbulent teenage life, with parents who had broken up in a very bad way, and a lot of illness at school.
next use kind
These days i tend to use one project I do as a kind of offshoot to the next.
people albums way
It's a shame in a way that people come and go with one album.
song play guitar
For me it always comes down to what is a good song and I'm very old fashioned in the way that I like to make songs that have something classic about them whether you can play them with an orchestra or an electro synthesizer or an acoustic guitar.
