[“A Deal with God”] was the first single off Hounds of Love. I’d put a lot of work into putting that album together and I wanted it to have every chance.
I think what is great is that if anything that I do is interesting to somebody else, then I really don’t think it matters at all what I had originally intended.
I had friends but I was spending a great deal of my time alone and for me that was vital because there’s an awful lot you learn about yourself when you’re alone.
A few times, I’ve thought about doing them again, but it’s just kind of never happened. I’ve just sort of gone the path of becoming a recording artist I guess.
I don’t really listen to a great deal of music. I love music, but since I spend a lot of time in the studio, we probably watch a movie rather than listen to albums. I get to hear stuff, but not on the grand scale.
The thing with 50 Words of Snow is that it was literally back-to-back from Director’s Cut [also released in 2011]. It was more or less that I got to make two albums in one hit. I was already in this space in my mind to be writing and making an album.
Even just making albums – which was more within the structure that I’ve worked in for years – you have no idea how people will respond. You don’t know if it’ll be any good whatsoever. It can be terrifying.
