I don't read books. I like to read newspapers and magazines, but I've never learnt to enjoy books or novels.

I know a lot of people who are struggling musicians; it's a hard life, and I've risked being that. The rewards are tremendous now that I've made it, I thank God every day. But I put it all on the line for it.
