I didn't like to be restricted, because when you're in a choir, you have a part to sing and you sing it. I always liked singing on my own.

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

I couldn't do the heavy rock thing anymore. Noddy Holder was around kicking every singer in the ***. I never wanted to be a pop singer. Christ, how I hated Noddy!

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

It is widely held that too much wine will dull a man's desire. Indeed it will...in a dull man.

You are only a young talent, but we don't know how old your soul is.
