It'll take you a couple of vodka and tonics to set you on your feet again.

People in England are so bloody nosy.

I still want to play music but I don't want to look like Donald Duck while I'm doing it.

I used to get my money at the end of the week, buy my mum something, or buy a record, and that was it.

I was incredibly confident on stage because that's where I loved to be. But offstage, there was no balance. I was a little shy kid that went onstage. And I always said, cocaine was the drug that made me open up. I could talk to people. But then it became the drug that closed me down. So it started out by making me talk to everyone, and then ended up by me isolating myself alone with it; which is the end of the world, really.

Top dog, top hat, move that muscle, move that fat.

Once you have people around you who don't question you, you're in a dangerous place.
