When you work with a major label they create their own message for you and a lot of the time that works great, or at least it did back in the 90's but now it doesn't work, so I think as an artist if you learn your own business, like anybody would when they want to start a little restaurant - they'd figure it out and then build it and they work hard - then it could be your own little business that you grew to as big as you want it to be but you had much more control with how to communicate it and how it's cared for.

I have to make music. If I don't do it, I go crazy.

I just wanna see a UFO, really

I think my records will always tend to be approachable.

I would love to come to Auckland. That's a place I've been quite a lot with my band so I'm very much looking forward to it.

I'm not gay, a lotta people think I'm gay. I have a girlfriend. She thinks I'm gay.

I applaud anyone who thinks I'm good-looking and invite them into my world.
