I love country music, but I find it very hard to take it seriously. I also think a lot of country music is sung with the tongue in cheek, so I do it tongue in cheek.

You can't always get what you want.

Most people in England don't live in the North, and people are snobby in England, so they wanted a band from the South.

Of course, I do occasionally arouse primeval instincts, but I mean, most men can do that. They can't do it to so many. I just happen to be able to do it to several thousand people. It's fun to do that.

I don't spend money on anything. I don't collect anything. I don't spend it on furniture.

I don't think people care about the mechanics of songwriting.

I don't really mind criticism in music or in shows and stuff like that at all. I mean, it doesn't really worry me even if it's like out of place. At least it's relevant.
