Maybe I've got to admit that what I did here was enough. I can make some more films. Maybe I'll direct a film. Maybe I'll have my musical put on stage. But nothing, really, to be absolutely honest, competes with making a very successful pop band for 10 years of my life.

Pop music should be about young people.

For 24 hours a day, for 10 years, all I thought about was being in a band. That's all I did. I had no other social life. I don't want my life to be like that now. I've spent the past 10 years having a real life as well. But Spandau Ballet is such a difficult shadow to outrun.

I've always thought that actors wanted to be pop musicians and pop musicians wanted to be actors.

I love my children unconditionally.

Songwriting helps me sort out my personal problems. With acting, you're just a tool for someone's ideas.

I love England. I don't really like places when they're too hot. It's my Celtic blood.
