The 52-year-old singer – who previously performed with The
Jam and Style Council before embarking on a successful solo career – is proud
of his extensive back catalog and wants people to continue enjoying it for
years to come.
He said: “I’d like to think I’ve left something in the
world.
“Without in any way trying to be morbid, life is very short
and I’d like to think I’d leave some body of work that would inspire other
musicians long after I’ve gone.”
Earlier this year, the legendary rocker released
critically-acclaimed album ‘Wake Up The Nation’ and was overjoyed by how well
it was received by fans.
He added to WalesOnline: “It’s been a good year and the
biggest highlight was that people liked the record.
“We thought we were taking a bit of a chance because
sonically it’s a little out there, but generally speaking people liked it and
it got great reviews for whatever they’re worth.”
