I loved music from the age of eight. Jazz and blues. But also Little Richard and Elvis Presley.

Words can be very powerful. I find them very difficult.

While it's a great indulgence, it's also very interesting to have three bass players on the same track.

But when I started writing songs, I stopped painting completely, and the only art things I do are connected to the career, like album sleeves and, to some extent, posters and things like that.

I like lots of songs, and I find it quite interesting to do [cover songs] from time to time. My first solo hit was in 1973, the Dylan song “A Hard Rain’s Gonna Fall.”

I like the name Atomic Kitten. It's so great.

Why should I spoil my mood by wearing an ugly suit?
