When I'm in London, it feels like I am that character who is 'Tom Odell.'
bob dylan everybody people
I think everyone mentions Bob Dylan, but he's someone I just admire so much as a songwriter. I think people write songs, and then there's Bob Dylan songs. He's one step ahead of just everybody else.
four lines progress song wrote
The first song I ever wrote was when I was 12, and it had, like, four lines in it. You progress and get better.
home listen music records travel
When I'm at home, I like to put records on, but because I travel a lot, I listen to a lot of music on my iPhone.
bad cold good great life rains saying songs totally weather york
I'm not saying you have to be totally despondent or anything, but... in New York, it's cold sometimes; it rains sometimes; even if everything in your life is great, bad weather can set the mood. You can write songs in New York because it's not always perfect. To write a good song, things can't be perfect.
I don't think I'll ever be able to grow a beard.
bob bruce continue inspired jeff love music rest whether
It's like there's the rest of the world, and then there's America. Part of the reason I would really love continue to making music over here because so much of American music has inspired me, whether it's Jeff Buckley, Joni Mitchell, Bob Dylan, Bruce Springsteen.
kept work worried
Singing didn't really come naturally to me, I don't think. I had to really work at it. I just kept singing. I never was really worried about it, though, because I was writing songs, and that was the most important thing to me.
arcade love records
I'm a big Arcade Fire fan. I love the way they make records - 'Funeral' being my favorite.
brutally closest dominant gaga gets history justin lady locked male rock stuff tried women
The dominant male is history. Could you see a male Lady Gaga? The closest we've got is Justin Bieber, who'd be locked up if he tried the stuff Gaga gets away with. Women are the only rock stars now. Adele is brutally honest. I want to be like her.
becomes defines music shared song
Music is shared. It's a shared feeling; that's what music is all about. When you listen to a song with someone else, it becomes more than just a song. It defines relationships.
anyone came male mind people
I wouldn't mind being the male Adele. She came along, and people were like, 'Damn, we haven't heard anyone this real for years.'
thinking worry alive
What ever your doing right now, whatever your thinking, or worrying about. stop. take a huge breathe in, and just enjoy being alive.
thinking piano naked
I'm so used to it, I think I'd feel very naked on stage without a piano.
