Time heals nothing, it merely rearranges our memory.

I always say it took me 10 minutes to write 'Cars,' but if I am honest it could have been even less than that - and it has been a really successful song over the years. It is still massively used, in advertising, in films, and people do cover versions of it a lot.

There's no point in lying saying I am doing really, really well because I'm not; I'm cult level.

I was always a bit different. I had a very happy childhood, but I could never hang on to mates.

I've always considered myself to be fiercely patriotic. I love Britain - its history and the down-to-earth attitude people have.

I genuinely don't know how many albums I'm going to sell when the new album comes out, because I honestly don't know how many fans I've actually got at the moment.

I'm very intolerant and I get fed up with people easily.
