My first instinct when I write songs is not a negative one. It's something positive... Everything I've ever done has some form of hope in it, I think.
I don't think we live in those times when great art comes out of great adversity.
I don't like John Terry and I never have. He's got funny eyes and he's a cry baby. He's also a Cockney.
You'll find people who rib you about their age are petrified about getting old. It doesn't bother me.
The thing about bands is everybody wants to be the next Oasis, and that doesn't mean slogging it out around the toilet [gigs], it means, "Give me the check, I need to go to the Levis shop and I need a 1960s Gibson."
I'm a massive fan of the Stones, and I don't think anybody should deny them the right to carry on making music. I just wish they wouldn't wear leggings.
I've got a fleet of cars and I've never had a driving license, ever.
