“I don't really like over-explaining the songs. Everyone constantly asks what the songs are about, and I think the thing is that the songs definitely all have stories in them; it's just nice to let people decide what they are. I think it's important that people hear it themselves rather than having me annotate it.” PeopleThinkingImportantStoriesSongAsksNiceExplaining Author:Tom Odell
“I find myself more affected by music the more I do it. Particularly when you're touring and you're in the bus and you're listening to loads of music. Life becomes far more dramatic, I guess - you're never in the same place, you're constantly meeting new people. You almost become more sensitized to music.” PeopleListeningMeetingsDramaticBusMeeting New People Author:Tom Odell
“I think music moves me more than other people. I can hear a song and it can bring me to tears. It doesn't happen the whole time, but I find songwriting - songs - very, very moving. I always have and I don't think it's fading.” PeopleThinkingMovingSongTearsSongwriting Author:Tom Odell
“I think music is better listened to with other people. Music is better shared. It depends what situation you're in - if it's a song by Tom Waits, it can be nice to be on your own, but if it's something slightly more upbeat, it's amazing to be around people.” PeopleThinkingSongWaitingSituationNiceMusic IsBeing NiceUpbeat Author:Tom Odell
“I like it when people are opinionated. I like an opinion. I like people that will fight for their opinion 'til an argument and through an argument. When they believe in something, they fight for it. I like those people that are perhaps sometimes too full of life - perhaps it's very difficult to be around them; they're not easy going. But I like being around people like that.” PeopleBelieveSometimesFightingEasyDifficultOpinionArgumentEasy Going Author:Tom Odell
“If people stop being interested it's because you haven't written a good enough album. Music will always be the most powerful thing. It doesn't matter what record labels or journalists say. It's the song.” PeopleIfsMatterEnoughSongPowerfulRecordsWrittenHavensAlbumsLabelsJournalistMost PowerfulGood EnoughRecord Labels Author:Tom Odell
