Jeff Lynne

The hairs stand up on the back of my neck at certain music.

I'm still getting thrilled with music even after 40 years of doing it professionally.

I just want to be in the studio. When you've got all the gear you want in your own house, it's difficult to go out and do something else, you know?

Another thing that freaks me out is time. Time is like a book. You have a beginning, a middle and an end. It's just a cycle.

I would've done anything to work with Satyajit Ray.

Well, I actually wrote her a letter a couple of days ago congratulating her. The tone I tried to convey in the letter is, look, you are a part of a great American historical process.
