“When I started writing, the first thing that came out was in English. ...” — Thomas Mars Quote

“When I started writing, the first thing that came out was in English. I liked a few French things, but they were very overwhelming.”

“My favorite albums are really short.”

“It's hard to write new stuff when the songs you have written before are still changing and evolving. It would be like building something when the foundations there are not really solid.”

“The way I think or sing about something is very different if it is in Spanish or English.”

“I've watched quite a few matches to understand English football.”

“I'm English, and I started off as a songwriter, so I can't really escape that - it's there.”
