I'm the greatest in this world.

I'm a musician and I'm really blessed, because in my life if I can hold the sticks, I can play.

I don't particularly like messages, because everybody takes whatever they take from whatever.

I mean, I was born the day war broke out, but I don't remember all the bombs though they did actually break up Liverpool, you know. I remember when I was a little older, there was big gaps in all the streets where houses used to be. We used to play over them.

The trouble with leaving your feet on the ground is you never get to take your pants off.

We [the band] had this open door policy - if you walked in the door, you were asked to play

When you're in a band - before it got to grunge - you dressed the bit. So yeah, I've always had an attitude with the clothes.
