Andy Bell chats to ilikemusic.com


Usually I get a song idea when I'm lying in bed, and I can't get to sleep because it's stuck in there. So I have to get up and sing it into a tape recorder, or if I'm out I'll ring home and leave it on the answer phone. Usually it stays in your head anyway. But otherwise Vince and I will meet up and decide we're going to write a song and he'll strum on the guitar and play some chords on the piano, and when he hits upon some nice chords or riffs I'll say yes, 'that's nice, play that over,' and then while he's playing I'll sing a melody, and he'll say, 'I like that bit, but can you make the ending different,' and we'll see how bits fit together, and sometimes one part of one song will fit together better with another song.

It makes it easier with a computer too, because we record the stuff into micro-cassette and then put that on the computer, and then clean it up and chop and change it around and do the vocals on there too.
