You can never say you're big - I don't think you can ever take anything like that for granted.

I get more people approaching me about how good I was in 'Napoleon Dynamite' than being in Coldplay.

What makes us a bit nervous is, in this instant age, to release something that might take more than one listen. Where everything is instantly judged on YouTube or something! It's a bit like releasing a horse and cart on a racetrack.

I think One Direction are the biggest band in the world, their songs are great.

I'm not an old-fashioned, booze-and-drugs rock 'n' roller. For me, rock 'n' roll is all about doing whatever you want. It's about defying convention and being who you are. I'd rather go swimming or running or kite flying.

Even though the album is an endangered species, can we try and make a coherent and good one, even if it's like making a horse and cart at a Nascar conference?

Nothing matters except life and the love you make.
