I remember flying with Air India to New York quite a few years ago now and I love Indian food, so the fact that I had a curry on board was fantastic.

When you're young you want to show people what you can do, no matter what the cost. Whereas when you're older, and you realise that maybe a drum machine is better than you playing, then use the drum machine.

Think twice; it's just another day for you and me in paradise.

I'm usually going to make a record, finish a record, start a record or start a tour or between tours.

I can't consider myself a drummer any more.

I didn't become a commercially successful artist by design, and actually I think that commercially successful just means, if you analyse it, that a lot of people like you. It's become a dirty word, and I don't necessarily think it needs to be.

If it's the beginning of something - like an album, I'm working on the lyrics and I take a walkman and headset.
