Today, we're even into the whole sweat thing. They'll wear a [suit] jacket like this, but they'll wear it with sweat pants and sneakers. But I do think there is every generation - and it won't be as big as it was when you and I were those ages - but every generation all of a sudden experiences that they want to dress up.

An artist or writer always has to move forward. All the time you're trying to improve yourself, or at least look at ways to improve things or make things better. I'm not really one to harp on previous records. I'm always looking forward to what I'm doing now, and what's ahead.

It is nice to make a record and people like it, and it's encouraging.

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

I'm very, very open to experimenting with different people and trying to find different methods of writing and making music.

I don't think about what I can't do or what I shouldn't be doing. I just think there are endless possibilities musically, really.
