Each time I play a song it seems more real.

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

I am very self-conscious a lot of the time.

I wore makeup when I was at school, and I wore makeup when glam started. I started wearing it again when punk started. I've always been drawn to wearing it. It's partly ritualistic, partly theatrical and partly just because I think I look better with it on.

I never liked Queen. I can honestly say I hated Queen and everything that they did.

If I put a value on my music, and no one's prepared to pay that, then more fool me, but the idea that the value is created by the consumer is an idiot plan; it can't work.

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