“I don’t want to be singing Satisfaction when I’m 40.”

I got nasty habits; I take tea at three.

As long as my face is on page one, I don’t care what they say about me on page seventeen.

You don’t have to bathe every day to look clean. It’s just an illusion.

My mother has always been unhappy with what I do. She would rather I do something nicer, like be a bricklayer.

People have this obsession. They want you to be like you were in 1969. They want you to, because otherwise their youth goes with you. It’s very selfish, but it’s understandable.

If you’re the singer in the band, you always get more attention than anyone else.

I love country music, but I find it very hard to take it seriously. I also think a lot of country music is sung with the tongue in cheek, so I do it tongue in cheek.

My secrets must be poetic to be believable.

I don’t want to be my extrovert self all the time.

The past is a great place and I don’t want to erase it or to regret it, but I don’t want to be its prisoner either.

All dancing is a replacement for sex.

Don’t take life too seriously and always remember: it is just a passing fad.

I don’t know if rock is dying. I wouldn’t want to say that, but the world does change. Nothing stays the same.

Normally I am not so violent. Everything comes from the question: Where will I die? It is a strong concern.

Too much is never enough.

Don’t you think it’s sometimes wise not to grow up.
