Miles Hunt - The Wonder Stuff
ILM: What's your favourite track to play live?
Miles: From the old ones, we've brought back a track that was the last track on Hup, and we haven't been playing this live for years and years, called Room 4-10, and we've been closing the show with that and I love playing that. I can't imagine why we ever stopped playing it to be honest.
Out of the new ones, there's song called Was I Meant To Be Sorry, and that's my favourite on the whole album, and I really look forward to playing that.
ILM: Any tips or advice for budding artists and producers starting out?
Miles:
• Stick by what you know, because you're probably right.
• Completely avoid anything to do with the major record company world.
• Anyone who tells you they can make you a star and help your career is a lying bastard, because nobody in the world has that ability.
• Enjoy playing live if you're a band - that's your greatest gift, so make yourself amazing at it and people will always want that. There'll be various changes that will go on within the music industry, in terms of how we consume our music it, the one thing that will never ever change is that the human animal likes to go and see other human animals perform - whether that's at a rock concert or the opera, is that is not ever going to go away, so be good at it and people will always react to it.

simon 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.
