I'm not closing the door on my solo career, but with 5th Story, if the public demand is there, then I'll continue to work with the band. If not, we'll all go our separate ways again.
The band will be going along, and somebody or another will say, 'I want to go off and do a solo career.'... They come back, and other people come in.
Nadine from Girls Aloud could definitely go solo - she's the one with the talent and will have a successful solo career.
I don't regard myself as a soloist. It's a color; I put it in for excitement. It's not great loss if a solo has to go. We've made songs without solos.

I never did albums fully at DFA; I always would go someplace else so I wasn't making a record in my office, basically.
We have to go into the despair and go beyond it, by working and doing for somebody else, by using it for something else.
Not to go back is somewhat to advance, and men must walk, at least, before they dance.
Writing is like travelling. It's wonderful to go somewhere, but you get tired of staying.
I think, bad times, I sit down and I play - there's definitely certain songs that touch in certain ways. I go back to 'Moonlight Sonata' by Beethoven; that usually takes care of everything.
For a songwriter, you don't really go to songwriting school; you learn by listening to tunes. And you try to understand them and take them apart and see what they're made of, and wonder if you can make one, too.
When I go on vacation, I take very few clothes and a whole lot of books. It's the most soothing thing in the world. Reading 'Moby-Dick' is like being in a time machine. I almost feel as excited as the first time I read it and I always find something new.
