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

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.

I'd love to follow the Tour de France one day. It's a really exciting spectacle. I've only seen it once as it was coming into Paris and that was very exciting for me. I have memories of that.

Women! I have no idea. I don't know anything about women at all. They're a complete mystery to me.

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

It must be quite difficult if you have a father who's sort of known. On the other hand, you can get a job in his band.
