Well, as I was saying... everyone's so nice to me, usually.

I have a lot of money stashed away, but I do live my life from day to day.

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.

I guess that's why they call it the blues, time on my hands could be time spent with you.

But until we get rid of that shame, then people are going to stay underground, they are not going to get tested, and we're facing an uphill battle [with AIDS].

Make this man a saint now, OK?

I don't have a computer. I am the Luddite of rock'n'roll, I don't have a portable phone. I write things down.
