Michael Jackson plays the wounded puppy very well. 'I must be the loneliest man in the world'. Well, you're not a man. And the loneliness is self inflicted, so sod off you pathetic puerile pimp. I wonder what color his willy is.

I love discordancy. It makes people ill at ease and wakes up a part of their brain that's normally asleep.

Move to Italy. I mean it: they know about living in debt; they don't care. I stayed out there for five months while I was making a film called 'Order Of Death,' and they've really got it sussed. Nice cars. Sharp suits. Great food. Stroll into work at 10. Lunch from 12 till three. Leave work at five. That's living!

There's many, many ways to write a song. But generally, sitting down at a table and writing is not one of them.

If anyone asks for your autograph they're showing you respect and give it back to them.

Some song ideas absolutely require a kind of rigid discipline, and others require absolute chaotic abandon. The form is only valid if you know how to un-form it. I don't mean to sound like an intellectual here!

I love being alive so much. When you come out of comas in your childhood, every moment awake is a joyous occasion.
