So what was the best question that someone asked you that evening? I think the best question I was asked was: “What is my guilty pleasure?” and I said Tears for Fears [laughs]. Oh Ian, really? Yes, sorry! Very guilty! So, although it pains me to say this, it has been 25 years since you released Fireworks (Pele’s oft-referenced debut album).’ You ha...
I did have an interesting conversation not so long ago with Ian McCulloch, about his ranting at Facebook users about how they should be helping the homeless. When I asked him what he was actually doing, or had done to help, instead of berating everyone else that would listen, he emailed me to say he was deleting me. [laughs] To be honest, that is p...

Give us a quick sprint through one of your tours and what they entail. Well one of the things I’m doing is that, if you pre-ordered the album you cold also pre-order the tour. People love it because they co...
You are well known for writing with your heart firmly on your sleeve, on many subjects such as love, racism, politics and many other nuances and social issues. Did any of that change once you became a father to a daughter, or did it just make the passions more inflamed? [laughs] The second bit! As soon as Rosie was born, I wrote a song for her, and...
