It's A Completely Different Way Of Working

Japan Is Quite Weird Because They Wait For You To Say Something Before They Respond. You Can Literally Hear A Pin Drop, They Don't Make A Sound Until You Say Something To The Crowd.

I Don't Really Know How To Do Anything Else Except Music. But I Do. I've Never Felt More Comfortable Doing It. When I Was Put Into Arenas And Stadiums When I Was 27, I Always Thought Somebody Was Going To Say, 'no, They're Not Here For You.' You Don't Quite Believe That They Actually Like You, Because It's An Extreme Change In Your Life. Which Is Insane Really, Because They Bought The Ticket. So You Start Feeling More Comfortable In Your Skin The More You Do Something, Or The Older You Get.

The Culture's Changed Massively. The Kids Are Different, With The Phones And Stuff. Even If You Like A Song, You Don't Really Know Who The Artists Are, It's A Lot More Faceless, It's A Lot Less Tribal. When We Were Growing Up It Was Much More Tribal - It Was Rock, It Was Grunge. Now People Like Songs, [but] They Don't Necessarily Know The Song's Origins. I Don't Know How You Would Feel Angry At The World, Or Distressed, Because Most People Are Constantly Distracted Or Consumed.

It's Better For The Listener To Interpret Their Own Meanings To The Music.

Revising A Screenplay Is Much More Frustrating Than Revising A Song Because You Have To Read Through The Entire Work Again While You Are Changing Stuff. It Is A Lot Easier To Edit A Song.
