The BBC, during its 24 hours on the air, plays a very wide range of stuff. And it's not commercial.

There are no plans to do any more live stuff. I really feel like there's enough live shows out there.

I think it's a sensible thing not to read your fan mail - not to take it too seriously.

I don't tend to have a favorite album; I tend to have favorite tracks. There are flaws in every album that spoil it for me.

It was an experience being on a Beatles tour. They weren't very good. The singing was great, but the playing was a bit weak.

Once I've settled on something I'll stay with that at least throughout the whole tour.

I remember the snow in Canada and the lovely weather in New Zealand. And I slightly remember going to school there.
