KUBB BIOGRAPHY

'We all love our mothers and respect them, but we don't respect the feminine part ourselves. Women who get to the heads of companies are all kind of masculine, they've gotten there by suffocating their feminine side. And "mother" is a very beautiful word. The earth is our mother; we're all made of dirt. It's given birth to us. Most people's emotional make-up stems from their relationship with their mother. So it's a very pertinent word and a very beautiful word. And it means a lot to me; it means a lot to everyone.

Harry laughs. 'Yeah, you can say that's a bit soft. But it's also hardcore.'

Some of the album documents the ruinous fall-out from a three or four-year relationship of Harry's. 'Somebody Else' and 'Bitch' are bitter but glorious. 'Sun' is a lighters-in-the-air power-ballad (in a good way), but with an emotionally dark undertow. The lyrics are typical of Harry's honesty, and of his willingness to face up to his conflicted self: "I'd like to say hello/but I'm hiding from the phone/I can't take it all in/I'm still reeling from the blow/I hope the sun will shine again for me/and I will make it in the end."
