albums time
Albums are like diaries. You go through phases, technically and emotionally, and they reflect the state that you're in at the time.
albums astounding received totally
I have to say I find it totally astounding that my albums do as well as they do. It's quite extraordinary, and it's actually very touching for me for the albums to be received with such warmth.
albums time
If I could make albums quicker, I'd be on a roll wouldn't I? Everything just seems to take so much time. I don't know why. Time... evaporates.
again albums maybe odd plays tracks
I hear odd tracks from my albums every now and again on the radio, or maybe a friend plays me something.
I am just a quiet reclusive person who has managed to hang around for a while.
family
I was aware of a lot of my friends being into things I wasn't into. Like sarcasm. It had never been a part of my family - they still don't use sarcasm.
freedom music
The freedom you feel when you're actually in control of your own music is fantastic.
encouraged work
Thanks to everyone who's encouraged and supported my work over the years.
My friends sometimes used to ignore me completely, and that would really upset me badly.
best complete love
I really love Hitchcock; I think he was a complete genius, to me one of the best directors. Such a sense of how to put things together.
tracks
I didn't really feel that there were any filler tracks on 'The Red Shoes,' but if I were to do that album now, I wouldn't make it so long.
I definitely don't think of myself as being an influence.
bothered busy generally lives mystery
We have such little mystery in our lives generally because of how we live now. I mean, of course, mystery is all around us, but the way we live our lives now, we're too busy to be bothered with it.
became further presenting quietly sing sit taking
The more I got into presenting things to the world, the further it was taking me away from what I was, which was someone who just used to sit quietly at a piano and sing and play. It became very important to me not to lose sight of that.
