After I've been in America for a while, I get homesick for Scotland.

I like people like Ani DiFranco, a band called Elbow, of course John Lennon, George Harrison, Barry White. I have a lot of different influences and hopefully they all come together and make some sense.

I'd be lying if I said it wasn't fun to go to these nights out, like the opening of a film or something, but I dip in and out of it.

I think I have a gift... but I haven't really opened that gift yet and given it to myself.

I'd like to win a Booker Prize for writing. A Nobel Peace Prize for my work in peace... and I think that'll probably do.

The club thing is a world people can associate with, letting your hair down at the weekend.

I think all art is subjective - that whoever's watching it or listening to it will decide whether it's good or bad.
