“The good thing is that The Human League never really wanted to be in a pop group. We never wanted to be famous. We just liked the music. And I think that's kept us grounded. We're not interested in the celebrity side of anything. We just like getting on stage and doing what we're good at.” ThinkingGood ThingsLeagueNot Interested Author:Susan Ann Sulley
“I think that's one of the great things about the travel. One day I am at home in Sheffield, the next day I'm playing the Hollywood Bowl. It's extraordinary.” ThinkingHomeOne DayExtraordinaryGreat Things Author:Susan Ann Sulley
“I think the thing about music is, it's about communication. If you communicate to anyone, whether someone unknown who's a fan or Lady Gaga, I think that always gives you a nice feeling. It's always nice when people say nice things about you. But we tend to think about people as equals.” PeopleThinkingGivingFeelingsNiceCommunicationMusic IsCommunicate Author:Susan Ann Sulley
“To be very fair, it was Ian Marsh and Martyn Ware who started The Human League. They brought Philip Oakey in to sing, primarily because Philip was very tall. So it started out as their vision. I don't think anyone ever thought it would be as big as it became. Music evolves and people were looking for something different. We came out at the right time and were just very lucky.” PeopleThinkingDifferentVisionLuckyEvolveLeagueRight TimePhilip Author:Susan Ann Sulley
“I think for a lot of new bands, although they have a lot of opportunity, this music business is not giving them a long-term career. I think there's some terrible stuff that comes out and we are bombarded by likes of The X Factor, Pop Idol and all those programs that I don't really like and I don't approve of.” ThinkingGivingOpportunityTerribleProgramMusic Business Author:Susan Ann Sulley
“There are other people coming out now, like Adele, people who are making their own music, doing their own stuff. That's a good thing. I think that music's okay. I don't think we need to worry about it.” PeopleThinkingWorryOkayGood Things Author:Susan Ann Sulley
“I understand why people do reality TV talent shows, I just don't think it's good for music. It's karaoke. What three people on a panel perceive as being great vocally, I think, isn't necessarily right.” PeopleThinkingRealityTalentPerceiveTalent Show Author:Susan Ann Sulley
“The likes of Bob Dylan and David Bowie and probably Elvis Presley or any of the Beatles, none of them would have got through Pop Idol, because they're not conventional. They're not what people think is popular now. I like the individuality in people. I don't want everyone to sound the same.” PeopleThinkingIndividualityDylan Author:Susan Ann Sulley
“I think a lot of people go in TV talent shows because they want to be famous and not because it's about the music.” PeopleThinkingTalentTalent Show Author:Susan Ann Sulley
