A Fine Frenzy chats to I Like Music
Alison - But I'm mad about tea too! In the states, it's really hard to find a good cup of tea too. My step dad is English so I grew up with it and we don't mess around with it. If we don't have teatime, everyone is grumpy!
ILM - Do you drink it out of fine-bone china with your little finger pointing outwards?
Alison - No way! I have it out of big mugs! I love being delicate but I love the taste of tea so I want a load of it! I love PG Tips or Peppermint with a pastry. Camomile doesn't seem to work with me for the getting to sleep thing.....Sigur Ros does though! Kings Of Convenience and Iron & Wine do too.
ILM - So touring with Rufus Wainwright then; he didn't turn you into a bit of a diva?!
Alison - Not at all - I bow down to him. He is a diva but in the best of ways. He's not diva attitude wise......although, maybe he is and we just love him for it! He's just flamboyant and outrageous and wonderful and hilarious! I had been a fan before but after the tour, I really miss seeing him. I had a chance to sing 'Across the Universe' with both Rufus and Sean Lennon on stage and it was amazing.

Estelle: ilikemusic because... It enables me to get my feelings out and it’s borderline therapy for me. Music makes me feel.
Jun: ilikemusic because... music can convey a mood, enhance a mood or change a mood. Music can be used to inspire and the artform is simple yet complicated. It's fun to listen to and even more fun to create and perform. It speaks when just a simple word can't. It's a blessing!!

Kevin Michael: ilikemusic because... I’ve been singing my entire life. I cannot go without listening to it or singing for a day. I wake up to it, I go to sleep to it, I am music.

Chuck, Simple Plan: ilikemusic because... It was always a way to escape whatever problems I was going through; whatever trouble I had, I could just put on a record or a song and feel better right away and I hope that our music can have the same effect on our fans.
Jo Whiley: ilikemusic because... It makes me laugh and it makes my cry and it gets me out of a stress if I’m in a stress, and, if I’m in a good place then it will make me in a better place. It’s all about the emotion, it’s all about the feeling where music takes you to and what affect it has on you.
