It's a great interview all round, though John clearly starts to tire a bit towards the end and makes me think it was done in one go??
I particularly love his reference to the Burning Car lyric. Always been one of my favourites, particularly that line
"It's a Burning Car…Loving You…"
A wonderful expression of the danger, unpredictability, excitement and anxiety involved in human relationships.
You do get the feeling from this interview that Metamatic was only really ever meant to be an experiment, to capture that feeling at that time.Very cathartic. I've heard John hint at this before and there is some irony in that it has become the album (and style) that he is best known for.
