"There are very few bands that I have more than two or three records by, and with Eno in particular I think everything that Brian Eno does best is on this record. I've tried to listen to other Eno records but I still get more from this one than from any of the others. There's just something about it. It's got this wonderful ramshackle element to it, but at the same time it's really experimental, and everything he does best is there. I remember listening to The Unforgettable Fire and the bits I listened to most were the bits that were obviously Eno overdubs or reflected his attitude coming through. And on that same tip it's already on Here Come The Warm Jets. Plus it's got some brilliant musicians playing on it. There's that classic guitar solo by Robert Fripp on 'Baby's On Fire'. Everybody stops talking when those 32 bars happen, or however long it is. And it moves from mood to mood. Every song on it has an atmosphere. 'Cindy Tells Me' is kind of flippant. You can imagine him writing that on a Sunday morning with a hangover, waking up in a stranger's apartment that happens to have a piano. Maybe he was thinking that Roxy was commercially successful - I wonder if I can be as well. And at the time he wasn't, of course: it was just, oh god, here's a weirdo record from that bloke that used to be in Roxy Music. But I think there are a lot of great pop tunes on there as well as it opening the door for a lot of experimentation."

"I wanted to include something current and with Savages you can hear all these influences of Joy Division, Siouxsie & The Banshees, Wire, etc; this distillation of all my favourite bands from my adolescence. I like being able to hear all of those influences, but although it sounds like their influences it doesn't sound at all derivative. It still sounds new and fresh and fierce. It's four ladies playing this really tough music. I bought the record and I thought it was pretty good, it sounded like it was made for me. And then I went to see them live and I was blown away. It was so tough. It's hard to pinpoint what made it so tough. It's these four women on stage, taking up every corner of the stage, all dressed in black and giving no eye contact to the crowd. They had such presence, you could feel their energy. It was really moving. My boyfriend turned to me during the show and said: ""I'm really enjoying this because it's really good but also because I know 15-year-old you is totally freaking out right now."" And I said: ""She is! She is! I think I might cry!"" In fact the last time I saw them I actually did cry. They did a cover of Suicide's 'Dream Baby Dream' and it was just all too much for me. So after seeing that first show I went back and re-listened to the record and it took on a whole new sound to me. I can now hear all of that energy coming out of the record."
