I'm shrewd about money; I invest well and look after it. But it's in my nature to be generous. I look after people.

I don't think people expect Bruce Springsteen to come out in a pink satin jacket, but Rod Stewart, they do. And I like doing it; I don't wear it just because I think I have to. I'm a very flamboyant person.

All I needed was a friend to lend a guiding hand. But you turned into a lover, and mother what a lover, you wore me out.

You know my wife, she's 6 ft 1 she can beat anyone up.

Elvis was the king. No doubt about it. People like myself, Mick Jagger and all the others only followed in his footsteps.

Lyrics are coming to you all the time. I get inspiration in the middle of the night.

My father, being a Scotsman, taught me to look after finances. I'm shrewd. Some people may call me tight.
