It may be over but it won’t stop there, I am here for you if you’d only care.
Maybe I should try singing like a man.
Every person I’ve met has influenced my songs.
Being British, I don’t really have a way of expressing myself in conversation. Music transcends language.
I always wanted to be a Muppet.
To come home and share life experiences with friends is the key to what makes me feel really alive.
Honestly if men are given a choice, we’ll choose everything.
I used to have an eBay addiction. I was really good at selling stuff. My sister needed to get to a funeral in Ireland – the airlines were on strike – so I listed her on eBay: damsel in distress. Guys were outbidding guys to be the hero and help her. A guy who owned a helicopter won.
Every time I do an interview, it’s like serious therapy. But real therapy isn’t something that I’d ever have. I feel fortunate that mentally everything is functioning well.
To get up on stage with a band is fantastic. To play songs to an audience is mindblowing.
War is devastating, and it leaves its scars for generations.
Mothers always think their children are prettier than they really are, and mine has always told me I look like Tom Cruise.
I think the things that make me excited are only best when they’re shared with people.
I know I’m a pop star. But sometime I’d like to be a rock star.
I don’t think I picked up the guitar in the first place as a way of getting women. There are probably better ways of doing it.
I try to read everything that I can about myself because Saddam Hussein didn’t read his reviews and he thought he was winning!
I try to tell one lie in every interview. It keeps people I know amused when they read the article.
On the song ‘Dangerous,’ it feels like a teenager picking up a new instrument and writing something with all of that naive excitement.
I’m screaming at the top of my voice.
No matter whether you are black or white, man or woman, gay or straight, Christian, Muslim, or Jew, we all share the same emotions, the same human condition.
We see differences in people and seem to be afraid of people. The black or white or gay or straight – I don’t necessarily look for differences but for similarities. We need to be looking out for each other.
