Jack White has just done a song for Coca-Cola. End of. He ceases to be in the club. And he looks like Zorro on doughnuts.
If I were in the Beatles, I'd be a good George Harrison.
I don't live to work; I work to live.
I love the NFL. I don't have a team per se, but I'm into it.
I wouldn't be here if it wasn't for my Mum. I know I've got Irish blood because I wake up everyday with a hangover.
I'm equal part genius, equal part buffoon.
None of us went to university, none of us went to college, none of us played in a different band before, none of us done anything. We were the last great band to come out of nowhere, on an indie label. We've sold 50 million records. That's still the benchmark. Until someone does what we've done, I'll always consider myself the last big songwriter
With every song that I write, I compare it to the Beatles. The thing is, they only got there before me. If I'd been born at the same time as John Lennon, I'd have been up there.
I did drugs for 18 years and I never got that bad as to say, 'You know what? I think the Kaiser Chiefs are brilliant.'
It is hard to be modest at times like these so I won't even try...you are all shite!
You're asking if I'm happy? I've got 87 million in the bank, I've got a Rolls Royce, I've got 3 stalkers, I'm about to go on the board at Manchester City, I'm part of the greatest band in the world. Am I happy with that? No, I'm not! I want more!
These fledgling democracies in the Middle East, they're actually fighting for their freedom. And what are they rioting for in England? Leisurewear.
There's enough music in the world. There are enough rock stars.
I sold my soul for the second time, cause' the man don't pay me.
