That's the way I work and one day I won't have the energy to do it, so I think it's always good to make the most of your life and living as much as p….

So often, the singer is the sound of the record. People think they can cover anything, but the whole voice is the thing that's unrepeatable..

A lot of youth today have become very narrow and conservative in a way, whereas we in the older generation are kind of living it..

I mean whatever I do it's important that I put my stamp on it and keep it in my world, whether I'm doing a dance track or something like the Russian ….

On my Instagram, I'm always keeping a record of things being pulled down in Soho and shutters being closed. Every city - and London more than anywher….

The weird thing was that Soft Cell was supposed to have come and gone before I started the album..

I'm always aware of mortality..

Albums, with me, have never had an easy birth. Especially when all the songs are self-written songs..
