๐ข He was very critical, he didn’t seem to take anything on trust, I do remember that. And I remember him, he was always looking a little bit bemused by the sort of college authority and the sort of rules in the drama department. He wasn’t… I wouldn’t say he was a rebel at that point and he was a kind of… he struck me as a quite subversive, he was quite subversive though he was always very charming and very pleasant and very obliging and always with a twinkle in his eye, that I do remember.
He chose his friends carefully. From what I can remember he had a few very close friends who were also very interesting, rather different people who weren’t conventional in here students.

๐ข He's definitely the emotional fire of the band. He has more of a vision than I have of where we are heading. He's more in touch emotionally and he's also quite tender.

๐ข I admire him as an artist, he has a talent for pushing ideas forward. He doesn't like the band being manipulated, and stands by what he believes in.

๐ข I consider Brian kind of my musical husband. We spend more time with each other then we do with anyone else. It’s a very close relationship that we have now for sixteen years … I’m happy to say that after sixteen years we still... we still laugh together, and we still... you know, sort of...you know, I love him, basically.

๐ข…I joined Brian who’s had extremely strong and extremely clear reasons […] he’s very firm in us following what was us as a band.

๐ข The thing about Brian is that he's super-intelligent. He's such a special creature - so captivating and warm - I would love him no matter what he did. […] I've got millions of fond memories of Brian. We've had so many great nights out together, and dinner parties at each other's houses. […] I feel lucky to have Brian as a friend. […] It's really special to know that he's proud of me. It makes me feel all warm and teary.

๐ข…I really do love Brian, he's a great guy – an incredibly talented, very interesting character. […] I definitely find Brian's lyrics very inspiring. I think he is a fantastic lyrics writer. […] Brian is an icon. I can use that word totally 100 % accurate with Brian. He is a rock-n-roll icon. When you see a picture of somebody like David Bowie or Bob Marley or Jimi Hendrix and see a picture with Brian it's the same vibe he's one of those guys. And a lot of that is down to the fact that he is an icon, he has an iconic sense of style. His face, think about his early style, the dress, the make-up, the lipstick, the eye-shadow. It's such a strong look.

๐ข Brian has always been a dream to work with, we have done photographs with angel wings, lollipops and pig's hearts… He is always up for anything. […] it is always great to work with someone who loves art and understands imagery. He isn't afraid to push the boundaries.
(๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐ก๐๐๐ฆ, 2017)
๐ข Brian is a great dad and is very proud of his boy.

๐ข Brian has got the most beautiful jewel-like eyes.

๐ข When Brain showed up I almost fainted, also because my English wasn't great and I was star struck.
So the more I was really impressed, how nice and caring he was, not arrogant at all. This helped a lot and in the end we really had some fun on the set.

๐ข Brian had all the skills required to make collaborating with him a very smooth process.
He's a great collaborator, as he's demonstrated over the last twenty years.

๐ข I think it will not be a revelation but the most interesting thing in work with Brian is his androgyny which creates a special, one of a kind person. His image became a symbol for ‘90s generation.

๐ข I think Brian's voice has got, excuse me for this, I don't mean it in a bad way has got a bitch in this voice. It's got a twister kind of thing, you know. And that is unique about him. Some people don't like Brian's voice. But that's what I like about him, just for that – bitterness in it.
