I Like Music caught up with this Paolo to chat about making music, Montreaux Jazz Festival, and getting advice from Paul Weller.
"I like music because… its expressive, you can convey whatever you're thinking through a song. And it's the best respite for me anyway to do it through music. So I like music because you can express and let your soul out through it."
PAOLO NUTINI
ILM: Your brilliant single, Last Request, is out now, and went straight in at number 5. And it's inspired by a turbulent relationship with a girlfriend. Can you give us your own personal description of its whole vibe and also, does this person know it's inspired by her?
