I spent so much time in my bedroom. It really was my entire world. I had books up there, my music up there, my record player. Going from my world upstairs out onto the street, I had to pass through this no-man's-land of the living room, you know, and out the front hall.

I started playing around with local rock band swith the alto. And then, in a nutshell, somebody fell ill one night, the lead singer of one of the bands, and they knew I could sing, so they asked me if I would stand in. And I quite enjoyed it, actually, I must say, at 14. It was a real trip to have girls wave at you and smile and everything just because you opened your mouth and sang.

Time takes a cigarette, puts it in your mouth.

I'm drawn between the light and dark.

I am a D.J., I am what I play.

Church on time, makes me party.

Elvis was a major hero of mine. I was probably stupid enough to believe that having the same birthday as him actually meant something.
