Well, I'm a huge fan of Ryan Adams, who's from North Carolina. And he's beginning to break really quite big.

I think that's the graveyard of musicians, playing cabaret. I think I'd rather be dead than work in cabaret. It's just so depressing.

Someone saved my life tonight, sugar bear, you almost had your hooks in me, didn't you dear?

I'm very relaxed. I'm very happy with my personal life.

My old man is drunker than a barrel full of monkeys, but my old lady she don't care.

I heard Little Richard and Jerry Lee Lewis, and that was it. I didn't ever want to be anything else. I just started banging away and semi-studied classical music at the Royal Academy of Music but sort of half-heartedly.

There's a lot of hate in the world.
