I was always frightened of classical music and I never wanted to listen to it
because it was Beethoven and Tchaikovsky and sort of big words like that and
Schoenberg.
You know I always thought, I mean sort of like a taxi driver the
other day had some sheet music of a Mozart thing and I said what's that you
know and he said oh yes oh that's the high class stuff you won't like that.
He said no no you won't like that.
I said well what is it you know he said oh no you
won't like it.
You know it's high class that.
It's very high class.
Highbrow [Em] and
that kind of way I always used to think of it.
I used to think well you know that
is that's very clever all that stuff and it isn't you know it's just exactly
what's going on in pop at the moment.
Pop music is the classical music of now.
[A] [F#m] [A] People [E] just take our music and you know in a line and we [B] just sort of say yeah
she was just 17 [G#] and they just they read everything into that.
She was a 17 year
old nimble maniac [N] working on the streets of Broadway but you know what we meant
is she's just 17 but it might mean all the other as well I don't know you know
I've no idea if there's any Aeolian cadences and [F#m] you know miasmic climaxes
and all [D] of that.
We're the last people to know about our songs because the pop
world's never heard the pop world as such because we can't you know it's like
if you look at a snapshot of yourself you're looking at what tie you were
wearing or whether you were looking nice in the snapshot you know but anyone [G] else
would just take the snapshot and say oh that's good that's a snapshot of Tony.
[A] We always think of ourselves as just happy little [F#] songwriters just little
rockers you know just [Fm] playing in a rock group but it gets more [Em] important than
that after you've [F#m] been over to America and you've sort [A] of got knighted.
[D] [D] When [E] we were touring and when it was at a sort of [G#] peak of hysteria instead of [G#m] just
saying you know that's nice we could have just thought aha [E] click you know
let's use this and for evil you know but [N] there's no desire in any of our heads to
sort of take over the world you know that was Hitler that's what he wanted to
do.
[G#m] There is however a desire to [F] get power in order to use it for good.
You've got power [F#] you've got to use it for the good [C#] because like everyone [F#] else we read
the papers we [G#] go through all the things that most people go through [C#] so if
everyone wants to say a thing [G#] at a certain time it's handy being a
songwriter you know you can put your finger on it like a
because it was Beethoven and Tchaikovsky and sort of big words like that and
Schoenberg.
You know I always thought, I mean sort of like a taxi driver the
