...On Steve Lillywhite:
He's incredibly gifted. It's been a great pleasure and enlightenment to work with him.

What does he bring in?
It's an atmosphere, it's positivity, and it's a matter of drawing the best out of everybody. And that's very hard to do. And Steve Lillywhite does it incredibly well, and makes you feel more adventurous and more sure of yourself than perhaps you normally would do.

From the Kirsty MacColl - Voice Of An Angel FAQ:
