l wasn't very sure that I was a songwriter, you know, I just sort of had this idea. Strangely enough, the lyrics of Keep Yourself Alive are meant to be a comment, they're meant to be slightly ironical. But I learnt very early on through this song that it's very difficult to be ironical in a song ‘cause people take it at face value. And, basically, people always did think that Keep Yourself Alive was just a jolly song about how great it is to be alive, but it's actually more about asking the question “is there more to life than this?” in a sense.
