I want to be surrounded by women, I want to be snuggled and cuddled and pampered.

My memory is not so good so my most memorable show is the last one I played. Songs are written with intention but they only emerge in the moment.

When I have a breakthrough in music and I hear the melody in my hands: that's when I get compelled - something in my gut just has to rise up and sing and put something to that.

I do feel most at home playing live, but the feeling of getting into the studio to see the new songs take shape was really incredible.

I love the sound of the wind in the trees and the song of the birds and the shuffle in the leaves of my many woodland friends.

I still go through stages of wanting to try other trades. When I was young I thought I'd be a magician. And then a cartoonist. Or a professional roller-skater. But there wasn't much support for those on career day.

I love getting a smile out of my girlfriend - that makes me feel like I'm seen, or heard.
