My life has been an open book, really. Everybody knows everything about me.

I'm very proud of my well-earned wrinkles, so show 'em.

Songwriting's never been a natural art for me; it's always been a bit of a struggle.

I'm a rock star because I couldn't be a soccer star.

I want to go out at the top, but the secret is knowing when you're at the top, it's so difficult in this business, your career fluctuates all the time, up and down, like a pair of trousers.
