I Just Didn't Make Music That You

Strangely Enough, When The Sugababes' 'freak Like Me' Went To Number 1, Which Was Built Around My 'are 'friends' Electric' Song, I Had Another Song Called 'rip' Go To Number 1 In The Kerrang Tv Chart, So I Was Pulling New People In From Very Different Areas Of Musical Interest. That Was Quite An Amazing Week.

I Always Say It Took Me 10 Minutes To Write 'cars,' But If I Am Honest It Could Have Been Even Less Than That - And It Has Been A Really Successful Song Over The Years. It Is Still Massively Used, In Advertising, In Films, And People Do Cover Versions Of It A Lot.

Ultravox Were The Blueprint For What I Wanted To Do, But I Stumbled Across Them By Accident.

If I Thought That Any Of This Was Pre Ordained, Then It Takes Away Any Kind Of Incentive To Struggle, Or To Put Up With Things, To Reach For Those Impossible Dreams, All Those Dramatic Things.

When You Decide To Do This Kind Of Music Then You Just Accept The Facts.
