My Reputation Is A Media Creation.

I Love Pop Music. It's Not Easy To Write A Good Pop Song. It May Be Easier To Put Out A Fake Jazz Album, As Sting Does From Time To Time.

Music Is Escapism From The Grim Realities Of Life. But Then As Soon As You Escape Into The Music, From My Point Of View, I Found I Had To Deal With The Very Things That I Thought I Was Running Away From. I Wanted To Hit Those Problems On The Head And Resolve Them. So They Didn't Remain As Issues In My Psyche.

If My Leg Falls Off, I'll Get A Prosthetic. There'd Be No Deep Sadness About. I'd Just Get On With It! It's Called Life, And I Love Life. You Have To Be Positive, And You Have To Crack On No Matter What.

I Do Use My Music To Entertain Myself, As Indeed I Use Other People's Music.

You Know, I've Been To Some Superstars' Houses, And I've Been Really Disgusted When I See Their Platinum Discs Hanging In The Toilet. They're Just There On The Walls Glaring At You When You're Trying To Be Occupied With Other Things.
