song feelings way
The way I choose to show my feelings is through my songs.
cancer way extraordinary
It has been an extraordinary experience and, in many ways, extremely positive.
thinking drug way
I think drugs were used by me as a way of suppressing my natural spirit.
should-have interesting way
Working with David Bowie was very interesting, but I couldn't surrender to it. I should have let him produce a record for me, but I'm very perverse in some ways. He's brilliant, but the entourage were rather daunting.
way narcissism feedback
When you are 18, 19, 20, you're used to being photographed all the time, in a certain way. So, the narcissism becomes almost out of control. And the way that young women are photographed, they become addicted to this feedback of the image.
love
I'd love to play a musician in a film.
head lovers
Lovers can do what they like to me - my head is cool.
british-musician smash
I think I'm really powerful. They'll smash me, probably.
I took drugs because we all took drugs.
bought grow life love save work
I want to see my grandchildren grow up. I want to be there for my friends. I want to be able to love the person in my life. I want to work. I want to do something I've never done, which is save money. I've never bought anything. I have nothing.
death feeling great higher life might mission sure
I'm not sure yet what my higher mission is, but I have a feeling it might be great. Before, I thought my mission was death, but now my mission is life.
air majesty discs
I don't like the compression on compact discs. It's lacking in air, and it's lacking in majesty.
done body littles
All I can say is I've been lucky with my body. Well done, little body. I praise it and say, 'You're very good.'
hate three looks
I never like photos of myself in the beginning. I live with them for three months, put them in a drawer, take them out and look again. I hate the way I look, but of course it's really not that bad.
