Don't let the sun go down on me.

I'm so proud to be on a Kate Bush record; she's always marched to the beat of her own drum.

Some kneel and lie to God.

I love the idea of the teachings of Jesus Christ and the beautiful stories about it, which I loved in Sunday school and I collected all the little stickers and put them in my book. But the reality is that organised religion doesn't seem to work. It turns people into hateful lemmings and it's not really compassionate.

I get bombed for breakfast in the morning, I get bombed for dinner.

You don't know being a performer what kind of performance you're going to give. You know you can give a certain quality of performance, but as I grow older I'm much more content in my own skin because when I come offstage, I have a balance in my life.

You can call me a fat, balding, talentless old queen who can't sing, but you can't tell lies about me.
