On that very first day, when I queued up, in the thousands, I never expected to get very far

I'd probably like to get into acting - I've got lots of things that I could do, but at the moment it's just music, music, music.

If people want me to be their role-model, it would be nice.

I just want my songs to be memorable, and for people to hear my songs in ten year's time and remember the great times they had while listening to 'em.

As a writer I'm always mindful that not everyone is going to feel the same way I do about something, so my emotions are just my emotions.

I don't care about the charts; I just want to make great music that I enjoy performing on stage and I'm proud of.

I don't want anyone to feel sorry for me because of the fact I haven't got any true friends! I'm fine the way I am.
