I Think Of Someone Like Mariah Carey

When Blur First Started And We Were Playing Manchester The Hacienda Was The Place To Go. That Was Where A Lot Of Exciting Stuff Was Happening And London Was Pretty Dead.

A Singer For Me Is More Like Someone Who Is Standing Alone With A Microphone Like Scott Walker, Rather Than Someone Who Is Bashing A Plank And Is Spitting All Over A Microphone.

Like, Mission Of Burma To Me Always Sounded Almost Like They Were Part Of The British Arty New Wave. I Kind Of Like That. I Like Not Being Able To Tell The Difference.

I Love The Magic Of The Studio.

It's Mostly Mars Bars And Peanuts And Cheese And You Go To The Fridge And There's Red Bull And Beer. It's Not Like People Are Holding Me Down And Pouring Beer In My Face.
