'When I arrived in London from sunny Bournemouth to learn French at Goldsmiths College, drinking was one of the things I liked doing most. Already there was an affinity, there was a thirst and there was Graham Coxon getting out of his parents' car. The very first person I clapped eyes on. He was an inspirational drinker. It was pure ballistics with us in those days. We'd launch ourselves headlong into giggling raspberry-blowing oblivions by night. I was on the roof; throwing everything out of the window. How we laughed. Quoting Barthes and Baudrillard and trying hard to find the meaning of the meaning all over the place.' - Alex James, BLUR -

'I was standing mostly in the photographs next to Damon and Alex, for God's sake, so it was tricky. But Damon and Alex were very beautiful-looking guys and Dave and I were kind of different-looking. We had our own things. So yes, youth is wasted on the young, it definitely is, because I wish I could have told myself, 'Look, you're a decent-looking chap. Have fun. Have fun, allow it, enjoy it'. Because I never allowed myself to.' - Graham Coxon on his appearance in the 90s. -
