STEVE: It's different every time. Sometimes Rich will have a lyrical idea which he'll then fit other things around or sometimes he'll have a little melody and just some guitar chords and nothing else; it's kind of weird how it works. Read our interview with Richard here

And sometimes he'll have a little idea and we'll try it in rehearsal and the song will grow from there and other times he'll sit at home and write the whole thing and record it on samplers and stuff on his computer and record the whole thing, and he'll bring it to you in like its finished version and say, 'this is what it's got to sound like.' So it really depends.

There's a song on the album called The King which, we'd practically finished the album and he was still fiddling around on the guitar with it, singing this song and we didn't have any other stuff. And we started recording it and it grew into this big album finisher. And that was just a couple of ideas on an acoustic guitar and singing. That's how most things start either on a piano or acoustic guitar or whatever.
