My earliest memories are sitting on the beach at Blackpool, and I know that if I went back, it would be horrible. I know what Blackpool's like - it's nothing like I imagined it was as a child.

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.

It's really nice meeting people after a concert. Still, it's very weird to be at the center of a group of 30 people all listening to what you're saying. When that group turns into 300 people, it goes on from weird. Some people revel in it, and I don't.

I became an adult in an extreme way. I was recently sorting some old photographs and I found another.

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.

It's really easy to slide into a depression fueled by the pointlessness of existence.
