People are People still gets played to death on '80s stations. It was our first big break in America. It's not exactly my favorite song.

I wasn't ever a massive David Essex fan, but I liked a few of his tracks, and Stardust was one of them.

I lead two totally separate lives. There are times when I have to slip into rock star mode.

I'm not advocating violence but I think somebody should shoot Simon Cowell.

I don't know if it's cool to say this anymore, but I grew up listening to Gary Glitter. A majority of his songs were in that shuffle-blues beat, and I think that's probably why I tend to write like that.

Music is really all about experimentation and lots of trial and error. It's just mind-numbingly boring until you hit on something that works well.

I don't like to think 10 years down the road.
