__ I’VE BEEN THERE, BOUGHT THE T-SHIRT. If you ever need to have a chat about anything, I’m your man.
__ ONE DAY, I’M IN SCHOOL having a cigarette and minding me own business. I think I was fifteen, sixteen. A couple of lads were looking for a bit of a fight. We got into a fight, and one of ’em hit a hammer over my head. Then a couple of weeks later music started creeping in. It hadn’t before. I’m like, You know what? I like that song, that’s pretty cool. Whoever it was whapped me on the head, I’d like to thank him.
__ I ENJOY GETTING UP EARLY. I like the morning. I like the quiet. You go out at eleven and all the lunatics are out.
__ MONEY CHANGES A LOT OF PEOPLE, but it doesn’t change me.
__ IF I WASN’T A ROCK STAR, I don’t think I would’ve played football as a professional because I like to go out and have a pint every once in a while, and you’ve got to be a bit of a numb to be an athlete these days, haven’t you?
__ PLAYING THEM BIG CONCERTS, you’ve got to be match fit. Make sure you get plenty of early nights and look after yourself.
__ I NEVER HAD A STYLIST, never ever. If you can’t dress yourself, you might as well pack it in, you know what I mean? What’s the point of living, you know what I mean?
