Bill Drummond: 'I love Lady GaGa'

Rex Features

Bill Drummond has said that he is a fan of Lady GaGa despite not owning any of her music.

The ex-KLF man, who produced 1988 number one single 'Doctorin' The Tardis' with Timelords bandmate Jimmy Cauty, told The Quietus that he hardly listens to music anymore.

Drummond said: "It's all been thrown out. Every time I hear recorded music it sounds, yuck, old-fashioned to me, whatever the genre is.

"I listen to stuff by accident, and I'm drawn to kind of, you know... I love Lady GaGa. Just as a pop phenomenon. I find that interesting, from what I've heard.

"But I mean, we both know I'm never going to be listening to a Lady GaGa CD or download or walking round the streets listening to it on an iPod, but I can still enjoy it."

When asked if he only likes the idea of Lady GaGa, he added: "Yeah. Yeah, well, and some of the songs, you know, it kinda works. But there's a retro thing to it that I don't really... theoretically I don't like the idea of retro."
