It’s very nice to be a sort of normal person for once; I think it’s about as normal as I’m going to get.
I’ve served my country.
I’ve longed for kids since I was very, very young. And so I’m waiting to find the right person, someone who’s willing to take on the job.
To be honest dinner conversations was the worst bit about being a child and listening to the boring people around me.
Conversations with my mother, father, my grandparents, as I’ve grown up have obviously driven me towards wanting to try and make a difference as much as possible.
I am very sorry if I have caused any offence. It was a poor choice of costume.
For me personally, as I said, I want to serve my country. I’ve done it once, and I’m still in the army, I feel as though I should get the opportunity to do it again.
I never had a penny to my name, so I changed my name.
We do not make art. We have unnamable motors and dangerous impulses that occupy our thoughts.
I wouldn’t mind people saying, “You can’t do this because this isn’t enough.”
Is passion what we are? Is that what we are in pictures? Is what we are in pictures almost real? Maybe it’s become the most real thing.
The problem with art is, it’s not like the game of golf where you put the ball in the hole. There’s no umpire; there’s no judge. There are no rules. It’s one of its problems. But it’s also one of the great things about art. It becomes a question of what lasts.
The subject comes first, the medium second.
It would be strange for me to think I’m being ripped off, because that’s what I do!
A lot of it’s experimental, spontaneous. It’s about knocking about in the studio and bumping into things.
Fans have been very important in my career. Even though I’m just doing me and doing my thing, they’re the captains of this ship.
I think that sometimes fans or supporters say “I love this artist” but they may not realize that he loves them back.
Every time I collaborate with an artist, I want to surprise fans. I want to do something new.
My ultimate goal in life, with my music, is to make a movement.
Everything in life is a risk! I mean, you walk out onto the street and it’s a risk! Don’t you think?
