The world that I inhabit in reality is probably very different world than the one people expect that I would be in. It is quite sedate. It's far removed from a lot of what they would feel to be the limousine traveling rock existence, or whatever.

Some people are marching together and some on their own. Others are running, the smaller ones crawl. But some sit in silence.

It's only forever... Not long at all.

I went mainstream in a major way with the song "Let's Dance." And what I found I had done was put a box around myself. It was very hard for people to see me as anything other than the person in the suit who did "Let's Dance," and it was driving me mad - because it took all my passion for experimenting away.

You would think that a rock star being married to a super-model would be one of the greatest things in the world. It is.

I went to a middle-class school, but my background is working class. I got the best of both worlds, I saw both classes, so I have a pretty fair idea of how people live and why they do it.

I'm a blackstar. I'm a blackstar.
