I got married when I was 16 so I had to do shift-work to make ends meet.

Comfort me by a solemn Assurance, that when the little Parlour in which I sit at this Instant, shall be reduced to a worse furnished Box, I shall be read, with Honour, by those who never knew nor saw me, and whom I shall neither know nor see.

I haven't become an American! Having a house in LA is just where the house is. It's just a convenience thing living there. I carry Wales around inside me. I'd consider moving back there one day. I never really left.

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 like to drink to suit my location.

First of all, I love singing. I mean, I get out of bed and I sing. I can't help it.

Time is my enemy. Time will catch up with me vocally. And I dread that. I dread to think about life without singing.
