Life's just a cocktail party - on the street.

Country music... doesn't bend notes in the same way, so I suppose it's very English, really. Even though it's been very Americanized, it feels very close to me, to my roots, so to speak.

I enjoy doing different kinds of things. I just enjoy being not tied too much. I feel that I'm tied to myself as a kind of traditional musician and a singer, and the history that I have ties me down.

I am not very conscious of the figures of speech that I use.

The Beatles were so big that it's hard for people not alive at the time to realize just how big they were.

Always as a musician you must have one thing you do well.

I haven't had the time to plan returning to the scene because I haven't left it.
