Joshua James Alphonse Franceschi quotes:

I wouldn't change any part of my life that I've lived up until now. I kind of believe in fate a little bit and I believe that whether it be good or bad, everything is happening for a reason regardless of how good or how terrible it is.

I've sacrificed lots of aspects of my personal life to do what I do.

People can get blinded by a sense of being comfortable or feeling secure, but that's quite a cynical point of view.

Lyrically I address loads of things that I've never talked about before, about me or about other people.

I think that's an interesting point of being a songwriter, is to write songs that make people think.

Love is blind, definitely. You never know someone truly or properly, that's what I've discovered.

I might take what I do very seriously, but at least I'm doing something, rather than sitting on my arse and being no-one.

People when they're growing up they just want to fit in, there are a lot of social pressures on young people today to kind of have it all figured out and know what they want to do, know who they are straight away and I've always tried to embrace that sense of pressure, but I've got people around me that do as well.

I got to a crossroads in my life where basically I was asked to choose between staying at home and being with them, or being in a band and doing what I want to do.

I think every touring musician sacrifices aspects of their life to do it.

I guess I just use the word vibe in pretty much everyday context and every sentence I possibly can. Some people find it hilarious, some people find it cool, some people find it infuriating, but ultimately it's coming out of my mouth so as long as i I like the sound of it who cares too much what anyone else thinks?
