My dad, bless him, was a musician. And his dad had thought that his music was rubbish.

I don't work at being ordinary.

With life and all I've been through, I do have a belief in goodness, a good spirit. I think what people have done with religion is personified good and evil, so good's become God with 'o' out, and evil's become Devil with a 'd' added. That's my theory of religion.

Looking back, I think I was always musical. My dad was very musical, and I think my mom was musical.

I think the idea of getting out of a traffic jam and getting out of work each week and going and doing all this stuff would be really exhausting.

For you know that it's a fool who plays it cool, by making his world a little colder.

There was one moment where they were riding their little ponies in Scotland, and Stella said to me: 'Dad! You're Paul McCartney, aren't you?' 'Yes darling, but I'm Daddy really'.
