I always wanted to be a farmer. There is a tradition of that in my family.

But I'm not interested in politics. I lose interest the microsecond it ceases to be emotional, when something becomes a political movement. What I'm interested in is emotions.

I feel the 21st century is another new age. Not only can we collaborate again with nature, but we have to. It's an emergency.

Now that rock is turning 50, it's become classical in itself. It's interesting to see that development.

I guess I'm quite used to not being understood rather than being understood.

For a person as obsessed with music as I am, I always hear a song in the back of my head, all the time, and that usually is my own tune. I've done that all my life.

It wasn't just one journalist getting it wrong, everybody was getting it wrong.
