I want to hear as much music as I possibly can before I leave this mortal coil but it's impossible to hear it all because there's so much of it.

I love the Kinks, but I like all sorts of music. If I stay at home at night and play records, I just go through the whole spectrum, really. I just love music.

I think people are just really disappointed, disappointed with Blair as well, who's just like Bush's lapdog. I think everyone's just disillusioned with politics in our country, and it must be the same in your country.

I still love playing music. It was all I ever wanted to do, and I got the chance to do it.

When I'm dead I wanna leave a body of work, like authors or great painters do.

I look for that stimulation constantly. I'm looking for inspiration and stimulation. Not bored with what we've done.

I'm so lucky, I'm just really grateful for what I've got around me - children and my wife and everything else.
