I don't think we live in those times when great art comes out of great adversity.

I'm going to get drunk and insult as many musicians from the 80's as is humanly possible.

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

Slade was never pretentious. It was just music to them. Pop, rock, soul....it was all the same to Slade. They wrote great songs. And, besides, I'd like to raid their wardrobe.

I've always been into guitars. We want to put keyboards on, but keyboard players don't look cool onstage, they just keep their heads down. There has never been a cool keyboard player, apart from Elton John.

I envy drummers. It must be the ultimate to sing and play drums at the same time. Phil Collins, no wonder he's so f... happy.

They should be shot. (on the Backstreet Boys)
