people
People said I couldn't gig, and I proved them wrong.
ask family home life living love normal people spent three
People ask what I really did in the three years between 'The Dreaming' and 'Hounds of Love.' I spent it with my family, living a normal home life.
people quite taken
Quite understandably, people think that if there's a six-year gap or whatever, that it's taken me six years to make the album. It's not really like that at all.
hard might music people work
My music can be a little obscure. It does worry me that the music might be too complicated for people to take in - that they have to work too hard at it.
love people stories watch
I don't read newspapers, and I've said I don't watch the news. I love books, but I don't read much. What I do is I get people to read to me, and I put the stories in my head.
afford case people scenario suppose
I suppose the worst case scenario is that people will get to the point where they can't actually afford to make what they want to make creatively. The industry is collapsing.
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.
artists guess touch work
I guess what all artists want is for their work to touch someone or for it to be thought provoking.
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.
