"The music I made was about failure." At least that interviewer mostly gets it, but that question preceding this quote is, sadly, hackneyed to say the least, but I expect it's hard to avoid some of this stuff when you're a journo.

Damn, I was going to post a link to Piers Morgan's Tracey Emin episode on The Dark Side of Fame, as an example of a BUNCH of really hackneyed, stupid questions posed by a hackneyed, stupid person (which the German dude is not), but it's no longer available on the BBC iplayer thingy :(. OH well.
