Taio Cruz: ilikemusic because... It’s my life and it’s the air that I breathe. It calms me when I’m feeling uptight and it’s there for me when I want to party if I want to listen to something up tempo, it’s just amazing in any situation. That’s why I like music!
Rob X: ilikemusic because... it puts me in the mood...for anything i feel like!
Georgia: ilikemusic because... some songs make you wanna dance around till your dizzy, some make you cry your heart out, and some will be playing during an amazing moment and you'll remember it forever.
Sian Evans: ilikemusic because... when everyone you cared about lets you down (e.g. friends, boyfriend, parents) all at the same time music will always be there to pick you up and help you move on. ;-)
Leon Jean-Marie: ilikemusic because... It transcends. It really creates emotion with someone. That feeling it gives you, it goes through boundaries. To create something, it just breaks through all the walls. When you connect with a song, that is it, that is magic isn't it?
Scott, Thin Lizzy: ilikemusic because... It lets my adrenalin start pumping, it gets aggression out, and sometimes I can actually get emotional with it. There are many reasons why I like music.
Jez, Utah Saints: ilikemusic because... It’s very good for the soul.
Keane: ilikemusic because... It’s the way we express ourselves
Shabee Naqvi: ilikemusic because... it takes me away from the pains in life. It's the shoulder I cry on. It's the hug I crave for. It's the smile that lightens up my day...and it pulls me by the ear to a melodious heaven on earth.
February 2003
They headline the NME Awards show. It's their biggest and best show to date. A day later they are Awarded Best New Band in The NME Awards.
March 2003
The band are forced to cancel their European tour after Carl contracts pneumonia. The dispirited band return home. On getting better they celebrate with a 'secret' gig in their squat, The Albion Rooms, in East London to a tiny audience. Needless to say the police arrive to break it up, and as their boots are pounding on their rickety stairs Pete and Carl serenade them with The Clash's Guns Of Brixton: "When they kick at your front door/How you gonna come? /With your hands on your head/Or on the trigger of your gun." The police let them off with a warning.
April 2003
They head out to Japan and then to Coachella where their set is pulled after ten minutes due to another band over-running. There is such an outcry that they are given a full set the following day, they are one of the hits of the festival. In the same month the band record a new single 'Don't Look Back Into The Sun'/'Death On The Stairs' with Bernard Butler.
