The working class has been turned into a consuming class - a situation has been created where people value their worth by what they can afford.

When I was in Pulp, I actively did more TV stuff because that was during the Great Britpop Wars, and it seemed important to prove that indie people could speak. That war doesn't exist anymore.

We've always been a bit out of touch with reality.

Jarvis Cocker 108 quotes

A Conservative government is ...

A Conservative government is necessary. There is no credible alternative.

I recently spent quite a bit of time in Sheffield, England, which is where I'm from. I wouldn't move back there, but it's funny when you spend a bit of time in the place where you were brought up. You kind of realize how that place has had quite a big effect on you or made you a certain way.

But I've got ideas. I keep my little notebook, I've always got that with me. Hopefully there's more stuff than nonsense in there.

I got a pair of red, synthetic satin women's pants through the post the other day with a phone number on. That was quite strange. I haven't tried the phone number. In times of stress I may.

It's weird: The leader of the Conservative Party in England is two years younger than me, and I still don't really feel like a responsible adult.

Jarvis Cocker 108 quotes

Also, because people like to ...

Also, because people like to multitask, in a way if you've got a bit of music on in the background and the lyrical content is making you want to listen to it, then that would probably put you off the texting you wanted to do. I think people like things that just make that right kind of noise, but leave your brain free to do something else.

Jarvis Cocker 108 quotes

I know that some filmmakers s...

I know that some filmmakers strive for a kind of naturalistic approach, but you're never going to capture something that's really natural - just the simple fact that you choose to put a frame around something means that you've already chosen one particular thing to put more attention on.

Jarvis Cocker 108 quotes

You get to a certain age and you just want to prove that you can still rock - that you've still got it.

Its OK to grow up, just as long as you don't grow old. Face it you are young.

Jarvis Cocker 108 quotes

I speak onstage to try to establish some method of communication. The songs are supposed to be a way of communicating. But speech and drinks and sometimes chocolates are also a way of communicating.

Jarvis Cocker 108 quotes

In a song you can kind of stage-manage everything so that it puts you in a good light. And once a song is recorded, it always performs well.

Jarvis Cocker 108 quotes

We live in an age where people are kind of a bit obsessed with celebrity and stuff. You can't help but be curious about it.

Jarvis Cocker 108 quotes

I think life is more interesting when everybody's jumbled up together. When people separate out into cliques and things, it's okay, but it's a bit limiting. You can always learn things from other people. This is my theory.

Jarvis Cocker 108 quotes

There seems to be a contradic...

There seems to be a contradiction in the fact that there's more music around and more channels or downloading music or more channels on TV, and yet at the same time, in some ways it doesn't seem to be as vital as it once was. It seems to be just another entertainment option or lifestyle enhancement aid or something.

You don't often hear people say, 'Oh, since he's been taking them drugs, he's such a nice person! He's really come out of his shell, he's really nice, he's blossomed'.

There isn't much I find interesting to write about in middle-class life.

Jarvis Cocker 108 quotes

It's funny how you can intensely investigate one very particular thing, and then it can lead you to other things through links and stuff like that. It's like you're going on this selective, very precise detour. But then it is strange because with it being so quick, there must be a difference.
