I Live In Santa Barbara. My Wife's

God Knows Why - No Pun Intended - But Every Time I Write A Song, I Feel A Need To Touch On Religion.

There Haven't Been Many Credible Electronic Covers Records.

When You First Sit Down To Write The First Song, Until You've Maybe Got Three Or Four Under Your Belt, It's Always, To Me, Like A Mountain To Climb. You Look At That One Blank Piece Of Paper And You Think, `god, How Many Songs Do I Have To Write Here?' It Always Feels Like Pressure.

As Part Of Depeche Mode, I Don't Think It's Right For Me To Be Using My Own Songs For A Solo Project. I'm Not A Very Prolific Songwriter, So I Keep Those For Depeche Mode.

I Do A Cover Of A Velvet Underground Song, And They Were One Of The Most Important Bands, For Me.
