Mixing Pop And Politics He Asks Me

Britain Is A Great Country. We Can More Or Less Say What We Like, And We Can Walk Down The Street Without Anyone Trying To Kill Us. I Know It's Tough For Some People, But Generally We Live In A Caring Society. We Live In A Great Country, But We're No Longer A Great Power. Part Of The Problem With Some Elements Of The European Debate Is That They Hanker For The Days When We Were A Great Power. Those Days Are Gone, And They Went A Long Time Ago.

All The Great Political Music Was Made At The Height Of Political Confrontations.

If We Accuse Trump Of Being A Liar, He Won't Just Say 'i Never Said That' Or Just Ignore It And Go On To The Next Thing.

If We Think We're A Nation With Great Ideas, And A Nation That Wants To Make The World A Better Place, Let's Commit Ourselves And Involve Ourselves With Our European Partners.

I Don't Mind Being Labeled As A Political Songwriter. I've Chosen To Do That. What Really Annoys Me Is Being Dismissed As A Political Songwriter. That Really Pains Me, Because Life Isn't All About Love; It's Not All About Politics, Either. It's A Beautiful Mixture Of Events That Absolutely Baffle You, And You Think, "why Can't I Do Something About That?", Whether Those Events Are In Your Bedroom, Or Out There In The Wide World. In Our Daily Lives We Engage With Them At Different Times, And I'm Trying To Write About The Whole Human Experience, Or My Perspective On It Anyway.
