You realise that having a number one record and being loved and adored isn't the most important thing in the world. But at the same time, I don't have a problem with it.

In my coming-of-age time, there was no internet, no social networking, nothing. It was just show after show, hoping one day somebody would notice you.

I am a survivor. I am like a cockroach, you just can't get rid of me.

Better to live one year as a tiger, then a hundred as sheep.

Say hello to your life.

I didn't set out to write certain kinds of songs - I just set out to write good songs.

I know I can feel bad, when I get in a bad mood, and the world can look so sad, only you make me feel good.
