The thing about us is we're honest. If we're asked whether we take drugs, we say yes. I was brought up by my mom not to be a liar.

Anything that's of any use, famous people get hold of it and take it for themselves and it gets a bad rap.

You can't put a load of rockstars up on a stage and expect to wipe out global poverty. That's ludicrous.

When a lot of musicians change styles, their songwriting suffers because they want to be different.

When we started off, we wanted the girls, the cocaine, the fur coats. It wasn't like it was an act; it was almost like working-class people winning the pools. We went bananas.

I started off as many fathers do. I enjoyed the good bits, but I was wary of the responsibility. But now I love being a dad.

You can have it all but how much do you want it?
