Back in the day people made music to go on tour. They didn't make music to make a video.

You know all these stadiums that U2 are playing? I've played in them. And I'm building up to it again.

My UK fans are quite similar to the States but they pay much more attention to the details, that I like. They listen, party, and dance moving through the changing moods of the music with me.

I have musician friends who play too much golf, and they're not as good at music anymore.

I'm a dreamer. I watch people. You don't try to become them because you could never become any of those guys. But you hope that some of it, you know, comes off on you at some point in your show, some point in your writing, that it happens to you and this light just shines on you.

I just think, who wants new soul? I want my soul to be the same as Otis Redding, I don't wanna have a new one.

The way to stay inspired and motivated is by doing what you like, doing what you love.
