I think if I lost an edge, or the music didn't have the aggression or whatever, which is maybe one of the hallmarks of what I do, if indeed it is, I still think if you have something original in what you do and you keep doing that, then you're all right.

A ballad once in a while doesn't go amiss

Once you stop drinking and smoking and stuff, it really gets on your nerves, all that nonsense going on.

I don't believe there is any justifiable reason for killing any animal unless perhaps if it's killing you! That would be negotiable.

You know, when you're 23 and you get pissed, I mean drunk, you can just go crazy and it's all right. But if you're 43 and you do it, it's like your best friend's mother who used to come in pissed and everybody was really embarrassed. It just doesn't go down well, you know, after a certain age.
