I always thought maybe I would give my first album a long title. Under Heaven Over Hell ('uh oh' for short) was one idea, but when I thought of Lungs, I knew it had to be that. This album is truly an exhalation and a gasp - a cacophony of ideas and influences. For things to get so big so fast on a debut album is both an unknowable blessing and a curse. You never know if the record (or the person) will survive it.
To be able to go back to it, 15 years and five albums later, and have it still be so loved is the most extraordinary thing. Re-imagining it with Jules Buckley and his Orchestra was an act of enormous catharsis.
