Richard Jones: Yes, Hello!
Interviewer: Well let's start with the single then.
Kelly Jones: Go on then.
Interviewer: If you can take me back where it first came from and how it's mutated and become what it is.
Kelly Jones: The song Dakota was first written in Paris. I was doing a promo trip for You Got to Go There to Come Back. It was snowing and the hotel room was really cold and boring and for some reason I just had a go of the guitar and the song came pretty quick. I kind of knew it was a strong melody and really strong hook. I put it away and finished the lyrics on an America tour a month and a half later in Vermillion, and it was one of those kind of songs that was very reflective, kind of dreamy and nostalgic but quite uplifting at the same time. The words sounded very much like the music so it was a pretty fast song really in the sense of how it kind of became what it became. It came together very quickly.

Leon Jean-Marie: ilikemusic because... It transcends. It really creates emotion with someone. That feeling it gives you, it goes through boundaries. To create something, it just breaks through all the walls. When you connect with a song, that is it, that is magic isn't it?
Jo Whiley: ilikemusic because... It makes me laugh and it makes my cry and it gets me out of a stress if I’m in a stress, and, if I’m in a good place then it will make me in a better place. It’s all about the emotion, it’s all about the feeling where music takes you to and what affect it has on you.

Lupe Fiasco: ilikemusic because... It gives me a chance to escape and reach people I wouldn’t ordinarily be able to reach. And without music the world would be kinda quiet.
