school wish kind
I never really studied business in school. I kind of wish I had, but how boring is that?
song writing play
When you write songs, you have to like them yourself first, but then you have to make everyone else like them, because you can force them to play it, but you can't force them to like it.
selfish people want
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.
night people bottles
If you get to be a really big headliner, you have to be prepared for people throwing bottles at you in the night.
sex night thinking
Rock 'n' roll and playing live is very addictive. But you have to really be careful, because you don't want to do it all the time. It's like when you are young and you think if you are not having sex you're wasting your time. But as you get older you realise everything has its place. It's the same thing with performing.... Performing is a great thing to do but you don't want to have to be doing it every night.
thanksgiving thank-you teacher
Thank you for leaving us alone but giving us enough attention to boost our egos.
real people gone
It's a real buzz, even in front of 20 people, to make a complete fool of yourself. But people seemed to like it. And the thing is, if people started throwing tomatoes at me, I wouldn't have gone on with it.
funny tea three
I got nasty habits; I take tea at three.
thinking people enjoy-life
I don't think enjoying life is an exclusive prerogative of young people.
dinner affair charming
It's like everyone I have dinner with, I'm having an affair with. Who was it I met the other day? Minnie Driver! She seems charming, but that's the only time I've met her.
air giving feelings
I like to have a peek, see what the audience is doing during the opening act, because it gives you a clue and gives you a good feeling of where you are - the air can be different in different places.
america world dresses
The grown-up world was a very ordered society in the early '60s, and I was coming out of it. America was even more ordered than anywhere else. I found it was a very restrictive society in thought and behavior and dress.
thinking drug boring
I don't like drugs. I think cocaine is a very bad, habit-forming bore. It's about the most boring drug ever invented.
years people loving-you
If you are British, you soon get used to people not loving you. The Irish remind us of offenses from 100 years ago. Perhaps we should react to what the French did to us even longer ago.
