  • simon f bakersimon f baker: ilikemusic because... you can transcend the confines of the material world with it, it's probably better than shagging in fact. There is virtually nothing more satisfying than when a load of chords and words suddenly come together into a song ; suddenly everything in life seems to fit and make sense once more.
  • DemiDemi: ilikemusic because... Girl's love music.
  • Seaney DevereuxSeaney Devereux: ilikemusic because... there's a song for every emotion and music creates debate and debate is what brings us together, it breaks down the walls that seperate sterotypes and it's always involved in your favourite youth memories.
  • KT TunstallKT Tunstall: ilikemusic because... It makes me feel alive!
  • Chuck, Simple PlanChuck, 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.
  • JLo-SullyJLo-Sully: ilikemusic because... ITS LIKE MY LIFE I HAVE BEEN SINGING ALL MY LIFE AND IF IT WASNT FOR THE MUSIC OR MY MODELING IV JUST GOT THROGH I PROBABLY WOULN'T BE HERE SO THANX N-DUBZ U THE BEST EVERY X

Gary Numan chats to I Like Music


GARY: I've done Janice Long before so luckily I'm familiar with the place and how to go about it so that's cool. The John Peel sessions, the first two I did with John Peel weren't actually that different to the way Janice does it. But the third one was quite different because there were people there watching and it was brilliant, really exciting. The first two were tucked away in the studio at Maida Vale and you're in the middle of this great big building with no windows so you kind of feel like you're in a big box. It was cool. It felt like a really exciting thing to be doing because it was with John Peel who was legendary even way back then. So it felt like it was a massively important step forward in my career. And it's amazing to have done it, with a legendary human being for a legendary programme. It was really cool.

ILM: How did you and Ade hook up?

GARY: I've known him for a long time, for years, as a friend. But he was doing techno stuff and I've never really been in to that, so for quite a while our musical paths were very different. To be honest, I didn't really have a lot of interest in what he was doing because I really don't get the techno thing too much. But then he started to work on what he called his first proper album and he was bringing me demos of that, and it was so clever and so different to what he'd done before, so much more along the sort of path that I like and that I was going down, that I was really taken with it. And then, every few months, he'd come back and visit the house and he'd bring new or updated demos of what he'd done before, and the improvement and rate of progress that he was showing was absolutely brilliant, I couldn't believe it.
