  • Alex Turner: Decussate. Wait a minute, I’ve got the definition on me somewhere. It means [Reading], “Crossed in the form of an X. In the brain, many nerve fibers from one lateral region to the other decussate.”
"I called him (Alex Turner) one day a few years ago, when I was first starting to think about the possibility of getting to make a record, and said ‘hey man, give me a good line.’ He hit be back and he was like ‘kalopsia,’ and I said ‘kalopsia, what the hell’s that?’ and he said ‘it’s a condition where everything seems more beautiful than it actually is.’"

"I’m restless. I’d like to think I know who I am, but I’m interested in the world at large. Doesn’t matter where I’m living. I’ve got a pen and a notebook I bought in a market in Manchester. That’s all I need."
