• Interviewer: Under what conditions was this album recorded in?
• Thom: We started in my house next to the sea, a place that I find happy and enjoyable, where I wrote some of my best songs. Last summer, we spent a fortnight over there. I was trying to convince Nigel to go surfing or to drive my old Land Rover across the sand dunes... I ask my partner Rachel if I could go out & she said: “Get out of here, take your stuff & go instead of hanging around here thinking of those songs.” We sterted at 18 o'clock, we worked all night, and sometimes went on the roof to watch the moon with my telescope... That’s how I like working: two hours on a song, then a little dreaming on the roof...
