Can you imagine how terrible it is when you've got everything and you're still desperately lonely? That is awful beyond words.

I got my diploma from Ealing College of Art, in graphics and illustration.

You can have everything in the world and still be the loneliest man. And that is the most bitter type of loneliness, success has brought me world idolisation and millions of pounds. But it's prevented me from having the one thing we all need: A loving, ongoing relationship.

Modern paintings are like women, you'll never enjoy them if you try to understand them.

A lot of my songs are fantasy. I can dream up all kinds of things. That's the kind of world I live in. It's very sort of flamboyant, and that's the kind of way I write. I love it

This thing called love, it cries like a baby in a cradle all night. It swings, it jives, it shakes all over like a jelly fish. I kinda like it.

If i had to do it all over again? Why not, I would do it a little bit differently.
