I never learned music. I'm quite uneducated, and usually I sat in front of the TV, with soap operas on, in England. It was very inspiring for me, I'd done all this traveling around, I came back living with my parents, everyone around me was like they're living in a soap opera.

If I could smoke from more than one orifice, I most certainly would.

Sadly, my socks are like snowflakes, no two are exactly alike.

In the early days, I had very little idea about arrangements, and I wrote songs a little flat, as it were, just on an acoustic guitar. They didn't really have quite enough nuance.

Oh, man, pop singers are terrible actors. We're all bad.

Some people are in charge of pens who shouldn't be in charge of brooms.

I do not wanna write a song like 'Coathanger' so Andrew Breitbart can rage against me on his web site. It's not my idea of fun.
