There's Something Insane About This

I Don't Think I Ever Worry Too Much About What Our Target Audience Is, What We Should Be Releasing. I Just Write Naturally And Organically And Try To Write From The Heart.

Once I'd Chosen The Songs, It Seemed Like It Would Just Be A Question Then Of Recording Them. But It's A Case Of Trying To Re-invent The Songs; Taking Them In Different Directions.

When I Write A Song, I Always Start On Acoustic Guitar, Because That's A Good Test Of A Song, When It's Really Open And Bare. You Can Often Mislead Yourself If You Start With Computers And Samples And Programming Because You Can Disguise A Bad Song.

England Never Felt Claustrophobic For Me At All. I Think It Would Feel More Difficult For Me If I Lived In Mainland Europe. America I Think Is Really Easy Because Los Angeles Has Film Stars Everywhere And Musicians And Santa Barbara A Lot Of People Have Homes There Even If They Don't Live There. You Are Kind Of Inconsequential, No One Cares.

I Live In Santa Barbara. My Wife's American, And She Lived In England For 11 Years And Then Told Me She'd Had Enough.
