It doesn't have to be about doing huge amounts of drugs or being hedonistic. It's about not caring what anyone else thinks of you. Rock'n'roll is about the seeking of the ultimate pleasure. For us, that means hanging around together and playing music that we all love and not being afraid to say that's why we're doing it. We're a little too frank sometimes, and not as concerned with all the other stuff as we should be. That's fine, though. We just get on with doing it. We don't want to live up to anybody else's cliche." "It started out as a joke really. We were up at Rockfield Studios in Wales and I came up with this melody. I started trying to sing like Neil Young, just cos the song had the word 'stars' and that seemed like a word you should sing in a Neil Young voice. It's funny how things happen." - Chris on the writing of 'Yellow' First Single Bought - Blur - 'There's No Other Way' First Album Bought - Michael Jackson - 'Bad' Eccentric Genius Award - Tom Waits Teenage Crush - Sinead O'Connor Going Out Tune - Oasis - 'Rock 'n' Roll Star Best Gig - Black Crowes vs Mr Obnoxious Go Out and Buy - Badly Drawn Boy - 'The Hour of the Bewilderbeast BACK |
