My father, being a Scotsman, taught me to look after finances. I'm shrewd. Some people may call me tight.
I'm shrewd about money; I invest well and look after it. But it's in my nature to be generous. I look after people.
I do take a lot of pride in my look and I work out - do work out a lot.
I had this almost Dickensian look. I was quite fragile.
There's nobody I look up to, really.
She's the only woman I've ever had a sexual fantasy about. With me, looks come first, and she's everything a woman should be. She's blonde and beautiful, she's got the most incredible legs - etcetera, etcetera. And she's French as well. (on Brigitte Bardot)
I know we've been trying to arrange a date for the last three or four years, ... I leave it up to my managers.
I left it this long because I wanted to get it right this time
I've had tremendous success ... I'm very lucky,
The key to it all is trying to put my own stamp on these songs, because they have been done so many times-just not by someone who sang 'Hot Legs' and 'Maggie May!' Since this album will be the last one for now, I wanted to make it really special.
We are celebrating every moment with our beautiful boy, we just can't take our eyes off him.

I have never had such a nervous day in my life,
