The charts are only relevant when you're top of them!

I'm used to people being a mile away. That suits me. It's more nerve-wracking playing in front of people who are two feet away from me.

I don't dislike rappers or hip-hop or people who like it. I went to the Def Jam tour in Manchester in the '80s when rap was inspirational. Public Enemy were awesome. But it's all about status and bling now, and it doesn't say anything to me.

I love the satisfaction of living in a world on a Wednesday where a song didn't exist that you're going to create on a Thursday that's going to change somebody's life, possibly, you're creating that from nothing.

Oasis can't be summed up in one word. I could do a sentence: Boys from council estate made it very, very big.

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

I like being famous. It can be a bit of a pain but you get free food in restaurants and people send you clothes.
