    “I love to sing and I really love to write, but in terms of being onstage, I'm not that comfortable, which I think is sort of clear. I write my own songs. I made my own videos. I pick my producers. Nothing goes out without my permission. It's all authentic as I've been writing since I was really young, so I've considered myself a writer for a really long time” Lana Del Rey Musician

    “I'm not a loner, but I spend so much time alone, even on tour. You don't know you've got a hit when you write it - because music is all subjective, you know? I think within our music there is a real strong idea of search, search for identity, search for place, search for time, search for love, search for knowledge” Jim Kerr, Simple Minds

    Public Address: SEXY BEATS

    "There's the paradox of making pop music when you're in your 50s and even older now. People weren't meant to be doing that originally and yet now they are. Mick Jagger used to say that the Rolling Stones weren't going to be doing 'Satisfaction' when they might be in a wheelchair" Neil Tennant Pet Shop Boys
