I had no desire to be famous; I just wanted to make the greatest music ever made. I didn't want anyone to know who I was.

In some cases, I quite like irritating people who need to be irritated.

It's a perfect day for letting go.

I'd like to record somewhere really different. Rent a really big house and get a mobile in and set up in the dining room. Maybe New England; it'd be nice in September or October.

There's no hope of me becoming completely relaxed on stage. If I did, I'd sit down and doze off.

I never answer if someone knocks on my door and only the band and my manager have my phone number. In any case my phone doesn't ring so I never notice it. I occasionally just walk past and pick it up to see if anyone's there.

You can't drink on an eight hour flight, pass out, and then go onstage... well you can, but then you're Spandau Ballet.
