I tend not to write on guitar very often. I tend to start off with keyboards.

I have to build my own boat this time. It's a big sea out there, and I have a pretty small boat. I have a lot of belief in it.

I don't think anybody comes close to The Beatles, including Oasis

Sometimes if the guitar is the last thing to go on, it's very fresh.

There are times when I've been feeling something and played a solo that I've never been able to repeat.

Not for a million - years. I mean, I like the INXS boys, but I found the process very degrading, really. Reality television has eaten away at our standards of excellence. I don't like this whole culture, which has evolved, of TV being the king.

Amazing uke playing to be relished.
