I'm still not good at changing nappies, but I do do it.

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

What I do now is all my dad's fault, because he bought me a guitar as a boy, for no apparent reason. ... I wrote some of my best love songs ever when I was unhappy and my saddest love songs when I was very much in love. When I wrote 'You're in My Heart', which is an uplifting song, I had just broken up with-Now who had I broken up with?. ... Half the battle is selling music, not singing it. It's the image, not what you sing.

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.

I had this almost Dickensian look. I was quite fragile.

When the one you love is in love with someone else, don't you know it's torture, I mean it's living hell.

I never feel any aggravation from the public.
