The business of being a popular entertainer in England is just too hard.
I've been in Hamburg for about ten years and I just feel at home.
I don't enjoy British shows as a rule because British audiences are strange.
I still like being in North of England and I keep a place there. But there are a lot of things about the Continent that are to be preferred. The social institutions work better, women have a better position in society and the food is another thing.
People have taught me not to look for intelligence in rockmusic.
I've never got on with the British press because they've always given me such a hard time. Once they build a band up they just want to do people down. They shouldn't concentrate on the colour of someone's shirt they should listen to the music.
