George Martin, he's very good at a very sort of lush, sweet arrangement.

I'm actually doing what I want with my life. I do sometime think I could just shut up and rest on my laurels and say: you know what guys, I'll operate out of the pocket you put me in.... but no way! No way I'm gonna do that! I'd just get bored stiff the first minute.

Where I come from, you don't really talk about how much you're earning. Those things are private. My dad never told my mum how much he was earning. I'm certainly not going to tell the world. I'm doing well.

When you're wide awake say it for goodness sake, it's gonna be a great day.

I used to think anyone doing anything weird was weird. Now I know that it is the people that call others weird that are weird.
