My real name was Thomas Jones Woodward, so I dropped the Woodward.

I have had some pretty wild nights! I think the media keeps a very close eye on what people are up to these days. I was out with George Clooney a few nights ago and we had a great time.

I think it's good that I had some experience of the real world before I became successful. You know, having to get up in the morning and going to work in construction.

I've always felt myself as being a serious singer.

I would want to be known as a great singer; that the records I've made and the performances that I've done to be remembered. But the voice is the most important thing. The showmanship goes along with it. But I want to be remembered for my vocal ability.

I think when you've lived a bit, you read more into the songs. I do, anyway. And you're sort of living the songs rather than performing them.

I've always liked to dance - I've got a natural rhythm.
