The magic of the group has everything to do with the chemistry between myself, Tionne and Chilli. With TLC, it's like, if there wasn't something going wrong, it just wouldn't be right.
People forget that keeping a band together is hard; man, it's really hard. All the cliches apply about living in each other's pockets; of it being a relationship, a marriage, a family.
The Eagles are four very alpha personalities. We've all done solo work, and we've all played with very good musicians, but when the four of us get together, it becomes something that's much bigger than any one of us.
Jin used to be an ordinary guy in the team, but he's the mood maker now. He's the most wicked and funniest of all. No one in BTS is normal, though, come to think of it.
I'm very proud of the album I made with Adrenaline Mob, and I think that there was really a great chemistry there; it was a great band.
The beauty of being in Boyzone - and maybe other bands are the same - is that as soon as you're back together again, it doesn't matter how long you've been apart. It feels like nothing's changed.
Every band needs it's own special chemistry. And Bez was a very good chemist.
When you're in a band, it's kind of a big thing to be friends as well.
The guys in my band are good friends on and off the stage. The band members that I have now is probably the best band that I have ever had.
Writers, actors, anybody working on an ensemble-type thing, there are going to be some creaks in the beginning. It seems like there's tremendous potential in just letting things sort of breathe a little bit. It's tremendously important.
I've heard people say, 'There are no bad audiences,' but that's just not true. There are people who just shouldn't be together in a room, who produce a really bad audience.
Led Zeppelin was a band that would change things around substantially each time it played... We were becoming tighter and tighter, to the point of telepathy.
I love working with ensemble groups of actors.
Being in The Fall isn't like being in another group. It isn't a holiday. A lot of musicians are really hard to deal with. They aren't as smart as me.
There is a real joy to be able to get up and react to each other and appreciate the whole being greater than the sum of the parts, just the chemistry of the group.
