As I Kid, I Was Always Jealous

As Soon As You Impose Western Chords On An Indian Scale, Something Great Collapses.

I'm Happy To Write 10 Times Too Much Music.

My Style Is So Tightly Tied In With Our Songs That I Don't Think You Could Even Ask Me To Quit Radiohead And Play Guitar For Another Band. I Don't Think I Could Do It. It Would Probably Reveal Me To Be The Bluffer That I Believe I Am. That's How It Feels. I Wouldn't Have The Confidence To Do Anything But This.

I Fell In Love With Electronics, Which For Me Was The Terra Incognita, Because I Had Never Heard Such Sounds. If You'd Asked Me 50 Years Ago, I Would Have Said The Future Of Music Is Only Electronic, But I Would Have Been Wrong. I Learnt How To Produce Everything I Needed With Live Instrumentalists, So I Don't Need Electronics.
