We're great, Jo and me. We're pals, and I guess sex has a lot to do with it. She's also brilliant at clearing a room. So protective, so devoted. I can't believe how much she loves me.

During the Eighties, when I was hurting for money, I thought, "Hang on a minute - I can paint." I was living in New York and I thought it would get the grocery money coming in, and it escalated from there.

I have a life coach out with me on tour, a very nice guy from L.A. He just prepares me for each day.

I'm terrible with money, absolutely awful. I'm always losing it.

My real self is probably more creative and more frightening than any sort of drink or drug-induced state.

You don't make solo albums to have hits.

My dad lived till he was 78, my mum was in her 80s, and I've got two uncles who are in their 90s now.
