So many of the bands that influenced me growing up were English, even if I didn't realise it. English pop ruled the world in the '80s!

I cry all the time. Music makes me cry.

But I still feel like a normal person... I've walked the streets and I know what it feels like. I speak with humility, and apparently those songs connect with people.

When it comes to the stage, I can't help but be inspired by people like George Clinton, Elton John and Alice Cooper.

The fact that you can love something that you've lost is all the incentive you need to love again, as opposed to becoming comfortably numb.

I believe that I am God's exact intention. It's that balance of virtue and vice.

My insurance provider probably wouldn't allow me to go into a mosh pit anymore. My brain is insured by Lloyd's of London, you know what I'm saying?
