I seem to attract and be attracted to very willful, fascinating people (Johnny Marr Quotes)
The biggest musical influence on me was my mum. We were both enraptured by music (Johnny Marr Quotes)

I see it like the classic romantic relationships with men and women, where the woman lets the man think he’s running it. It’s a classic matriarchal trait, and that’s always been part of my personality (Johnny Marr Quotes)
If people can finally recognize you on radio without being told who it is, thats what you aim for (Johnny Marr Quotes)
