An album, for me, is not just a commercial product. It's about presenting a world to people, for them to explore and enjoy. How they do that is up to them.
From Alison Goldfrapp
I think it's a bit of a myth that if you can read music you can write music. It doesn't work like that.
I think a lot of singers are shy people. I suppose singing on stage is not like talking; you are not as exposed.
I was clear that I wanted to do music and I wanted to write songs. But I wasn't clear about how I was going to make that happen. I wrote loads of songs but didn't want to show them to anyone.
I don't think that just because you go on stage you are an exhibitionist.
I have strange blood sugar levels. I get very odd if I don't eat. I either want to hit someone, cry, or fall asleep.
I carry my own food around on tour; I permanently have carrier bags full of cereal and bananas.
I live on the edge of Bath. It's really lovely, but its very loveliness freaks me out a bit. It's peaceful, a great antidote to the craziness of being on tour, but sometimes I feel as though I've retired.
I find shopping too stressful. I get hot and flustered and irritated and feel sick after I've bought something.
I'd like a telescope, but I probably wouldn't look at the stars that often. I'd definitely be looking into people's flats most of the time.
