Enthusiasm and misplaced belief can take you a long way.

Enthusiasm and misplaced belief can take you a long way.

I think the music business is probably not happy with what we've done, because the people buying the record have actually got to pick what they want to buy, rather than being told what they should buy.

I went through a really low period about 13 years ago, when all aspects of my career and everything went completely wrong.

I don't think they like the idea that the people who are buying the record get to choose what goes out, because it's their job. The fans even pre-ordered stock to make sure that I had some sort of presence.

I was pretty ambitious as a child to want to be a star with the talent I had, but I want to finish what I started and bring the fans along with me.

There's no point in success if you don't let it go to your head. That's what it's for.
