When you write a song you have an idea of how it should be sung but it doesn't work out that way if someone else records it

I have a little dictaphone and if a sound takes my fancy or if a lyric comes to me in the middle of the night I'll just record it there and then.

You can be tops in Australia and be unheard of everywhere else

But even now, when people see me in the street, they point upwards to the sky.

But all bubbles have a way of bursting or being deflated in the end.

It is not the money but the self-respect and wanting to create good music.

I'm very much a family person.
