I've simplified much more in my writing. I say what I've got to say, not in metaphor.

I thought I wanted to go to drama school or university, and that would have been a completely different life. But what got me was the sound, and hearing it. Hearing everything so loud, I loved that back in the studio. I loved that from the very beginning.

I live a very nice life. I have a wonderful time. But it's not lived drawing on a full level. I'm relaxed, cool, and enjoying it.

I like my work, but my life always comes first. I always wanted to have a beautiful life, and the way to do it is in show business.

The way I choose to show my feelings is through my songs.

I'm a Capricorn, and they flower late.

The only time I ever really consider retiring is when I get fed up with the press. Which is often.
