We have a very similar haircut. I very much enjoy it but I'm also very aware of the damage it's doing to my body. I think women are far superior human beings to what men are.


With Jubilee Road, because I was running the show, I would spend hours doing the piano parts. We have a very similar haircut. But that's quite dictator heavy, so maybe I'd invite my mate Henry too. I'm currently sat in my living room looking at posters on the wall of two films.


Tom Odell - So this bottle of wine had been waiting, sat in the cupboard for 18 years. Who would play you in the film biopic of your life?


Jonjo Rooney What is the one thing you wish you could tell your 16-year-old self. Everything's going to be fine. When I was a teenager, I didn't really know anyone that did the job that I do, so it all felt very unobtainable. A lot of the time I would do songwriting but it was almost just a dream in my head, so I think I'd tell myself that it can be a reality. I'd also tell myself to get a slightly better hair cut, I'd probably say that to my 23-year-old self too. Nick Cave is a huge inspiration to me as well. I've always believed that there should be so much more to songs than being catchy and tom odell instagram on the radio. My favourite songs are the tom odell instagram where you discover something new each time you listen to them, even after the 35th listen, there's a depth to them that you keep discovering, like a great painting or movie. It's such a challenging art form to make, but that's what makes it so compelling. What I love about pop music is how universal it is and how a great pop song can be inclusive of everybody. What is your party trick. I'm quite good at opening bottles with my teeth, my dentist wouldn't be very happy about that. I very much enjoy it but I'm also very aware of the damage it's doing to my body. I wish that I didn't. A lot of musicians smoke because of the conditions we work in, it's nice to be able to go outside and have a cigarette. The embarrassing thing is that I only started smoking when I began touring, when I was a teenager I used to think it was disgusting so I don't know how I started. I don't even remember starting. Who would play you in the film biopic of your life. We have a very similar haircut. I really despise shopping, I do it like once a year or once every two years but one thing I do have quite a collection of is shoes. I'm quite into very well-made boots. In this very transient consumer age where you buy something that only lasts six months, I like the process of going to the old cobblers down the road and getting them re-soled. There's a great cobbler near where I live in East London. What three films do you think you could watch over and over again. I'm currently sat tom odell instagram my living room looking at posters on the wall of two films. Harold and Maude is a really stunning film and Cat Stevens does the soundtrack. Then there's another film which my girlfriend introduced me to called Betty Blue, it's a French film and it's got Béatrice Dalle in it and it's stunning, a very sad but very romantic film. I recommend everyone watch it, it's incredible. Some of my videos from The Wrong Crowd album were inspired by it. In terms of a modern films, I'd say La Grande Bellezza which is an Italian film by Paolo Sorrentino; it's just a beautifully shot piece of cinema. I could list 20 that I could watch over and over again. I'm never really up to date on the notable males. I'm very into tailors, there's a guy in Kentish Town who makes all my suits for me and he's been there for 40 or 50 years, his name's Chris Rocco and he's very into that old school tailoring, he's a true gent. I'll wear anything that tom odell instagram makes because he's so brilliant. What song or album could be the soundtrack to your life and why. Without sounding too cheesy, I guess that's what I've been doing with my own music. There's definitely an autobiographical side to it. I love being at home in London, I live near Victoria Park and I have a little dog called Bobby; we walk round the park together and it's just so beautiful this time of year. It's just the most incredible city, there's such a diverse culture. East London in particular, there's so much art tom odell instagram here and so many different types of people. I feel very lucky to live here. What would the title of your autobiography be. I've always felt like the outsider, it's part of being a songwriter. You're always staring through the frosty tom odell instagram rather than being in the bar. I'm much more of an observer. A lot of people my age and a bit earlier in their Twenties have this desire to go and be a part of something and I guess I never really felt that way. I've always felt like I've been a visitor or a tourist to places. If you could invite four people — living or dead — to the ultimate dinner party, who would they be and what would you serve. I can't really cook but I can make one thing, it's a pasta dish with prawns, linguine and some garlic and chilli. In terms of guests, I think right now it would be good to get some of the dividing opinions from around the world together, so maybe it'd be good to have Trump and Corbyn - I don't think we'd have Theresa May cos I think she'd be pretty dull. Maybe the leader of North Korea and maybe to lighten things up. But that's quite dictator heavy, so maybe I'd invite my mate Henry too. Tom recently headlined Barn On The Farm Festival and is touring around Europe over the summer whilst finishing his next album.


Tom Odell Live on Facebook and Instagram July 16, 2018
I don't feel I had ever met this band before, but they said it in an interview and someone showed it to me. I kissed a stranger in the hallway late last night, he was wearing purple shoes I asked him when he kissed me could he close his eyes, and he just looked at me confused. Then there were all these different characters, like the old man at the end of the road, who ended up becoming a dear friend and used to come over the whole time. I wish that I didn't. Recently I've watched my sister, who has given birth to this lovely little boy, and I've just been completely entranced by her motherhood. I'm currently sat in my living room looking at posters on the wall of two films. East London in particular, there's so much art round here and so many different types of people. Who knows which way the wind will blow Baby, it's a mystery I don't know cause I can't see There's no point even talking about It's a mystery But I can say without a doubt I want you right now When you look at me, I see you contemplating Whether I'm gonna break your heart I'm twenty-four, I'm pretty sure I'll love you when I'm eighty But who wants to see that far? Then there's another film which my girlfriend introduced me to called Betty Blue, it's a French film and it's got Béatrice Dalle in it and it's stunning, a very sad but very romantic film.
