If you really ever love someone, that doesn't go away, although you wish it would.

My story is the story of countless millions of children whose families and nations were torn apart for money in the name of Jesus Christ.

Nobody gets between me and my microphone.

What pisses me off is when I've got seven or eight record company fat pig men sitting there telling me what to wear.

I really believe that God and religion is two different things.

When I grew up in Ireland in the seventies there was no such thing as therapy...I mean we didn't even have cappuccinos until 1998! So for me music was therapy, it was also the place where one could speak about himself, where he was allowed to speak about his traumatic experiences.

I am someone who really does believe very strongly in the Holy Spirit. I feel I'm someone who, since I was a very, very small child, of being engaged in a very strong relationship with the Holy Spirit.
