Your drummer, Dave Rowntree, and bassist, Alex James,do they have a say in Blur?
Of course. But Blur is above all Graham and me. Careful, I do not want to minimize their role within the band, but they have lives outside. Alex has five children, he makes cheese, writes columns in the press, organizes a festival. Dave has a degree in astronomy, he knows how to fly a plane, he had political responsibilities within Labour, he could even be elected to Parliament one day. Me, I only composed and wrote songs!
