I have a weakness for watches. I have to stop myself buying more.

People never talked about my music. They just counted how many knickers were on stage.

Whenever I've been asked to be in a film, directors only want me to play myself... I'm fascinated by the thought of being an actor, but it's too hard. And I think Shakespeare-which has been suggested to me-might be a bit of a stretch.

I think teen-age love is a great thing. There's nothing quite like it and never will be for the rest of your life.

I love listening to new stuff, at home in LA I always have the radio on to hear what is happening.

I've always worn jewellery but for a time it went out of fashion. Like grungy and punk bands didn't wear jewellery because it was stupid.

When I started recording, I thought I'd be able to do all kinds of records: jazz, country, dance - and I've always wanted to do a gospel album.
