Being British, I don't really have a way of expressing myself in conversation. Music transcends language.

We see differences in people and seem to be afraid of people. The black or white or gay or straight - I don't necessarily look for differences but for similarities. We need to be looking out for each other.

I don't think I picked up the guitar in the first place as a way of getting women. There are probably better ways of doing it.

I have been told by people that I should not be seen clubbing with good-looking women, but I can't see why not. Why be a pop star otherwise?

Mothers always think their children are prettier than they really are, and mine has always told me I look like Tom Cruise.

I'm screaming at the top of my voice

I always wanted to be a Muppet. So when 'Sesame Street' approached me to guest star, I thought: 'I'm going to be on this!' It's pretty incredible stuff.
