As I got older, my voice got better.

Success and failure are equally surprising.

Traditionally, duos get accused of lots of things.

Any song I don't feel good about, I shelve. Anything you ever hear me sing, it's because I want to.

I was a pioneer in MTV and I was there from the very beginning. So I saw how that developed and how loose it was and how much fun it was in its looseness. And I was influenced a lot by that.

I was just like a 21st century person waiting to be born, and this is the medium that I thrive in. And I feel stronger now than I did any time since I've been a teenager - I mean, musically, creatively.

I have an English family and I've lived in England for years.
