I really don't like showing people how I play things; it's a little embarrassing because it always looks so simple to me.

This week, I'm a gypsy. Maybe next week it'll be glitter rock.

I'm just looking for an angel with a broken wing.

So many people are frightened to take a chance in life and there's so many chances you have to take.

That's the music that I play at home all the time, Joni Mitchell. Court and Spark I love because I'd always hoped that she'd work with a band. But the main thing with Joni is that she's able to look at something that's happened to her, draw back and crystallize the whole situation, then write about it. She brings tears to my eyes, what more can I say? It's bloody eerie. I can relate so much to what she says. "Now old friends are acting strange/They shake their heads/They say I've changed."

I'm not interested in turning anybody on to anybody that I'm turned on to... if people want to find things, they find them themselves.

When I went over to the States to promote Outrider, everyone was telling me I was a blues guitarist. I'm not a bloody blues guitarist. I'm a guitarist.
