Life after fame: Lloyd Cole on what your hotel room tells you about your pop career: (...) "Finally, Lisbon. We have been in love since 1985. The fiery passion long gone, but still, heads turn. It's late when I arrive at Hotel do Chiado – the place 10 years ago and still lovely, if a little frayed at the edges (touché). The porter shows me to my room. The view is spectacular; there isn't a better city view in the world. I know Tapete can't afford this room... Some days, some places, it is indeed good to be me. I should take a photo and post it on Twitter. I should. Instead, I take a whiskey on the balcony, and I then re-string my guitars, watching a Law & Order re-run".
(2010)
