When I realised I wasn't Michael Jackson and I was this 10 year old boy growing up in the suburbs, I was devastated

It's me! It's me! It's always me! [Darren when asked who smelled so good at the MTV Live interview in New York]

I think that's what's really beautiful about music, that it is little pieces of your heart and soul.

Elation and pain are experiences that make you realize youre alive. Thank God you feel them; otherwise youd be numb.

If you want me to be straight, gay, into monkeys, dating Kylie, whatever, I'm happy for people to project whatever onto me!

When I was 10 I used to walk around shopping centres and go, "Oh, they've recognised me!" And I would think, "hold on, who am I? I'm nobody famous yet!" - Darren on 60 Minutes

I've never been the sort of person to walk into a room and have *clicks fingers* 50 women want to sleep with me, ok, and suddenly you walk across a stage and you have a video clip and you know girls want to go out with you and think you're beautiful!
