I've been a long-distance father.

I'm glad that the lyrics reach people and make them understand that we're all the same, really.

If Miles Davis hadn't died it would have been interesting to do an album with him, but there wasn't much else that would have got me into the studio... although Herbie Hancock has just been in touch about doing something and that would be an interesting combination.

I'm not a singer who plays a bit of drums. I'm a drummer that sings a bit.

They're the only ones brave enough to give me these opportunities [on being offered a soundtrack!]

As I've gotten older and learned more, I realise that Hollywood has not told the truth.

Each thing leapfrogs. I do a Genesis project - like now, we're just finishing off an album - and then by the time the album is doing its thing, I could do nothing or I could do a film.
