I stayed out of the sun when I was young, not because I knew better, but because I'm a Type A personality who gets too restless to lay around and do nothing.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I'm not too good at lying still in the sun.
I'm not a sun person.
I'm lucky because I don't like being in the sun a whole lot, just because the repercussions for me - I feel it, I go very red.
At midnight every night, I would methodically leave the house for a couple hours' walk, come back in, and record. And then the sun came up. If I had done something good, then I'd be happy and go to sleep.
I am restless. I don't mind leaving this comfortable, static life. I could live a year on my own in a remote village.
I feel extraordinarily peaceful when I'm watching the sun set.
I'm so fair that I didn't go in the sun as a child. When all my friends were on the beach, I was going to ballet. The teachers there didn't like you going in the sun, so I never did.
Growing up in Dumfries, I got no sun - I spent all my time in my room making records. When I came to America, it made me recognise the benefits of sunlight. Oh, and I also got a good haircut. I used to have a terrible haircut.
I think that there's something really powerful about the sun and its effect on the human psyche. I lived in a place with no windows for twelve years.
There are things around, and I know where they can be got quite easily, but I quite like waking up to the sunshine.
