"I love the songs on it and I love Karl Wallinger's singing. I fell in love with it cause he sorta took all the influences that he loves from the sixties and seventies - I guess from The Beatles, The Stones, Bob Dylan - and somehow he made it into his own style. I don't think anybody really heard this album in the States, I don't think it had any commercial success at all. It's a great record. It’s a record I played to death and it still sounds as good now as when it came out."

"I recently was taken to an old cinema in Atlanta to watch this. I hadn’t seen it before, and it resonated with me for weeks: it’s quite preposterous and absurd, but it’s a real picture of alienation juxtaposed with love and growth, and this exploration of losing your visibility even when you’re the focal point. There’s something so stark and brutal about the film. And also to watch it after Bowie’s death, it resonates a bit more, because it feels like there’s a little bit of his soul captured in the movie."
