You can do too much and oversell your market.

I used to take amphetamines until I realized that amphetamines didn't go with being a good singer.

I struggled more than anything else to find a voice for this band.

I have to tell you, and I don't mean this as sour grapes or anything, but it is hard to play for fans who see you all the time, makes it much harder.

I live 50 miles from London and we've got some of the highest levels of teenage and childhood poverty in the country. It's disgusting. Just because it's a rural area, it gets forgotten.

Imagine if you could go watch Mozart today, even if it's the last, crappiest show he ever played. What a thrill that would be.

I'm surrounded by good people. That's the measure of a good life. All the rest is flotsam.
