I was young - I was 20 years old. Now I have the gift of perspective and I feel pretty good about it.

I've had many years to consider what I would like to see about a particular place. I don't waste any time and I enjoy it.

I'm not interested in being known as the singer from Led Zeppelin.

You feel quite distant by playing at huge stadiums year after year, where you only can see a great darkness in front of you

I treat everywhere as being a center from which I can enjoy the surroundings.

When you're singing we all phrase each other in the most remarkable ways. I might hit some sort of thing I've never done before - some vocal pattern. Bonzo will pick it up - he'll phrase with me instantly and then Pagey may join in or start some other phrase - it's like a quadrant.

To rock isn't necessarily to cavort.
