I've got many, many demons that affect me on many, many levels.

Sometimes I'm scared of being Ozzy Osbourne. But it could have been worse. I could have been Sting.

I'm into rock'n'roll because rock'n'roll, to me, means freedom.

All that stuff about heavy metal and hard rock, I don't subscribe to any of that. It's all just music. I mean, the heavy metal from the Seventies sounds nothing like the stuff from the Eighties, and that sounds nothing like the stuff from the Nineties. Who's to say what is and isn't a certain type of music?

I'm hoping to do a Broadway musical on the life of Rasputin. He's someone I can definitely identify with.

If that's the only thing that's stopping war then thank God for the bomb.

I grew up having to piss in a bucket ’cos there was no indoor shitter, and now I have these computerised Japanese super-loo things that have heated seats and wash and blow-dry your arse at the touch of a button. Give it a couple of years and I’ll have a bog with a robot arm that pulls out my turds, so I don’t have to strain.
