I don't like being on television when I'm playing live. I don't even like being on Jools Holland or any of them programs.

I love the Bee Gees, but only the pre-disco stuff. From '64 to '69, I've got all their albums.

I'll do one eventually as life's too short and none of us is getting any younger. I'd like to make one while I still look good and before I look like Phil Collins, which, eventually, I will.

As I get older, I don't aggressively pursue songs. All the great ones just appear.

Rock 'n' roll is about music. Music. Music. Music. It's not about you, it's not about me, it's not about Oasis. It's about the tunes.

With every song that I write, I compare it to the Beatles. The thing is, they only got there before me. If I'd been born at the same time as John Lennon, I'd have been up there.

If I had a gun, I'd shoot a hole into the sun and love would burn this city down for you.
