Some people want to fill the world with silly love songs

Somewhere down the line everyone must pay for their misdeeds.

My record producer [David Kahne] said the major record labels these days are like dinosaurs sitting around discussing the asteroid. They know it's going to hit. They don't know when, they don't know where it's coming from. But it's sort of hit already. With iTunes, and all of that.

People don't like land mines, especially the survivors and the people who are living in the countries with them. They think they are cowardly, like we do, so I think it's down to the governments to actually just listen to the people and sign the treaty and get rid of all these things and there would be an end to it.

It's a powerful thing hearing your friend on a very beautiful song.

My arrest was on every bloody TV set. The other prisoners all knew who I was and asked me to sing.
