Graham Coxon: ‘Music has always been there for me’

The Blur guitarist, 53, on his addictive character, making music as you age and being a Britpop brat

I was a brat throughout Britpop. There was so much to rail towards. But I ought to have been more grateful for my luck and taken care of myself higher and tried to take pleasure in it innocently. My drawback with Blur was when it turned a business. But a much bigger drawback was when my own individuals started speaking in that language. When all of it turned about breaking America, or no matter.

When individuals become old their music will get rubbish. You’ve discovered a bit more about your self, mellowed out, perhaps executed a little bit of therapy… – that younger, fiery, uncompromising outlook you as soon as had starts to get the sides knocked out of it. I’m not talking about myself, clearly.
