You've just got to trust your instincts and realize that you can't please all the people all the time. You've got to please yourself ultimately in the end.

I first came to London when I was 22 and working as a roadie. Having watched the 'News At Ten' all my life, I thought Big Ben was going to be massive, but I was underwhelmed.

If I were in the Beatles, I'd be a good George Harrison.

To be quite honest, John Lennon had questionable politics. There was a flip side. He was all peace and love, but he was a very violent character.

Kylie Minogue is just a demonic little idiot as far as I'm concerned. She gets cool dance producers to work with her for some bizarre reason, I don't know why. She doesn't even have a good name. It's a stupid name, Kylie, I just don't get it.

I'm a little bit of a control freak when it comes to my music, unfortunately.

If you don't want to be the biggest band in the world, you may as well pack it in.
