The majority of the time I'm at home with my family, I play football three times a week.
From Martin Gore
Record covers helped me discover a lot of music that I wasn't aware of.
People are People still gets played to death on '80s stations. It was our first big break in America. It's not exactly my favorite song.
Our music over the years has been very cinematic. It's surprising we never really got into film soundtracks.
Once I'd chosen the songs, it seemed like it would just be a question then of recording them. But it's a case of trying to re-invent the songs; taking them in different directions.
Music is really all about experimentation and lots of trial and error. It's just mind-numbingly boring until you hit on something that works well.
It creates a conflict of interest - what songs would I use for me, and what would I use for the band.
I'm not particularly prolific.
I will be the focal point for however long I decide to play. Half of me likes that idea and half of me doesn't, but once the adrenaline kicks in, I'll probably really enjoy it.
I wasn't ever a massive David Essex fan, but I liked a few of his tracks, and Stardust was one of them.
