Songs don't have to be about going out on Saturday night and having a good rink-up and driving home and crashing cars. A lot of what I've done is about alienation... about where you fit in society.
I'm not a prophet or a stone aged man, just a mortal with potential of a superman. I'm living on.
Once I've written something it does tend to run away from me. I don't seem to have any part of it - it's no longer my piece of writing.
I believe that I often bring out the best in somebody's talents.
I wanted to prove the sustaining power of music.
Strangely, some songs you really don't want to write.
