There is nothing more common than unsuccessful men with talent.

For me the music is a vehicle for my lyrics. It's a chance to get some really good words across.

If I had five million pounds I'd start a radio station because something needs to be done. It would be nice to turn on the radio and hear something that didn't make you feel like smashing up the kitchen and strangling the cat.

I have a weird life because I live on songwriting royalties, which are a strange income. Sometimes it rains, sometimes it doesn't.

People can change anything they want to, and that means everything in the world.

There isn't a town in the world I haven't run amok in.
