I love rethinking and reimagining songs.

I don't really have the voice for love songs, do I?

I've always been a big fan of taking old songs and completely turning them on their head. Having no adherence to the fine tradition of the original version. Rearranging them and taking a different approach to them.

Me and Jerry left because we felt we weren't getting anywhere playing our old songs in tiny clubs. The group was getting stale and staying behind the times.

We like songs that are familiar.

I've written songs sober and I've written songs high.

I don't wanta do any Blues or any sad songs.

I've always tended to write songs prolifically.

I like 'me'/'I' songs.

I take my hat off to people like the Stones, but it's not for me. I couldn't do that. Jagger is brilliant and long may he rock. I couldn't make my career out of old songs; it would do my head in.

Smiths songs certainly have an astonishing afterlife.

Originally I was not writing songs for myself.

I've copyrighted 3,000 songs.

It does feel really good when you play a new song, and it's the loudest singalong of the night. It means just as much when we're playing the old songs, and people are singing along to those, too.

I love songs but am inhibited to have my characters burst out to express themselves through songs. I use the route of using old songs at the right places.

I like to sing love songs.

Nothing in my songs is disrespective.
