I really enjoy what I do, and who I'm with and where I am. Having said that, I'm not really a person of habit, because what I do in my job is travel around the world and play concerts to people, and occasionally do very weird things.

Both me and my wife's extended family all live within a 50-mile radius. Like me, a lot of them did time in London then started drifting back to the countryside and the sea. Perhaps it's a homing instinct.

I have never liked Morrissey, and I still don't. I think it's hilarious, actually, what things I've heard about him, what he's really like, and his public persona is so different. He's such an actor.

I think, at heart, unless you discover faith in something else, something other, it's very hard to shake the thing that you're adrift alone.

If you acquiesce to one interview, there's always another waiting in the wings. Also if you're interviewed repeatedly, you just start repeating yourself. I don't like to do that.

A lot of journalists give me a hard time about how I look, but I've never met a journalist I'd rather look like.

Nobody notices me. Nobody thinks I'm me. But then I look less like me than most of the people coming to our concerts.
