Someone once asked me, `How does Jimmy Page strike you?' I replied, `With both hands, of course...'

Most of the albums that have taken long have been related to illness and fatigue or producer problems.

Not necessarily, a lot of my songs are firmly tongue in cheek.

When I was very, very young, seven years old, I heard there was school where you could go to learn to draw. That was my absolute driven passion, to become an artist or a painter. So the romantic realist in me, I studied to be a graphic design artist and an art teacher.

I'm the last person to ask 'what do you remember' from a particular time period... I like to learn from the past... not 'live' in it.

I've never been uncomfortable putting my heart on display, my feelings on display, certainly with an audience.
