The record company really pissed me off when they told me to lose weight. I couldn't be bothered with looking a certain way. So I left the business. I don't regret it.

My father has taught me all the tricks of the boys at an early age, which has made me very careful.

When I was 15, I was naive, looked like a grey mouse and felt second choice.

I want to conquer the world and it seems like my own family is putting a stop to that.

I'd got married and wanted to have kids, so had kids, brought them up, did other things, and slowly got back into music. And it feels great, having one foot in the present, writing and covering interesting songs, and having one foot in the past.

Performing, I can take it or leave it. Horticulture is far more challenging. I'm absolutely fascinated by it.
