bit elton everybody imperial justin paul sure
Everybody who's anybody has been competitive and over-sensitive and a bit silly. Look at Paul McCartney, look at Elton John. They're jealous of Justin Timberlake. I'm sure they were jealous of me when I was in my imperial phase.
believe few god watched
Do I believe in aliens? No. I think there could be. Do I believe in God? No, I think there could be. Do I believe that Jesus actually existed? No. I think he could have done. A few things I've seen. A few things I've read. A few things I've watched have sparked my interest. Do I think it could all be rubbish? Yeah. I do.

You've got a beautiful country with so many beautiful people and so many beautiful things happening and stuff like that lets it down. I feel sad for them.

I'm trying to not follow fashion. I don't even like the word. But I do like clothes, and I like nicely cut clothes that last and that are built to be worn for the next 30 years.

I don't think it's important to be that good at singing. I think people who are good at singing sing backing vocals for pop stars. It's about how you project. I wouldn't consider myself to be a singer.
anywhere boy fan fit good hundred last michael time voice
I'm a fan boy when it comes to Michael Buble. He's just so good at 'it'. He's got a voice of this generation, but he's like a time capsule; he's got a voice that could have fit in anywhere over the last hundred years. It's stellar.
anybody bunch cool great hope months recording spends understand
I want a hit. I don't think anybody spends 12 months writing and recording an album, making something cool, and says, 'Great, I hope this doesn't sell.' I don't understand that mind-set. I want hits: a big bunch of them.
You know, I am a mainstream person with mainstream tastes, and I want to hear the hits.

On an emotional level, success in America would be terrible for me; it would be insane. I really, seriously, never want to be famous here.

In Los Angeles, I feel connected to a hubbub of strangeness. And I enjoy that; I like strangeness.

We will never go back on the road, ... When we ended we were great. We don't want to become Status Quo.

We've had our clothes ripped off us, jackets going missing, scratches all down our backs -- and then we go home to our mums.
