Thanks for posting this!
It makes very interesting reading and I especially like the quote:
"I love that kind of language you get in rock'n'roll. You can say really dumb, quite trite things like 'Be my, be my little baby now' or 'I can't stop loving you', but when you apply those really simple words to music they become almost better than the greatest poetry."
I totally agree with this. Being a bit of a pedantic, at first I had some difficulty accepting the line 'I love you like I love the sunrise in the morning' (Now which Spiritualized song was this again?). Now I have to admit that these lyrics are among the most beautiful I know in music. Even if there are no sunrises at other times of the day.
