I don't think I've ever played the Olympia before, but I'm not totally sure.

All those rappers, they're the only glamorous people working in music now. The rock bands are rather drab, even the good ones. You definitely don't want to look at them. But some of those R&B people are very good.

All those rappers, they're the only glamorous people working in music now. They dress up in these chains of gold, cars, girls and this and that, high-heeled shoes.

While it's a great indulgence, it's also very interesting to have three bass players on the same track.
-
I like to think Duke Ellington would probably embrace a fragrance as well.
-
It's nice to know that there are several different avenues I could pursue.

I'd love to follow the Tour de France one day. It's a really exciting spectacle. I've only seen it once as it was coming into Paris and that was very exciting for me. I have memories of that.

I can never predict what's going to happen.

Words can be very powerful. I find them very difficult.

Women! I have no idea. I don't know anything about women at all. They're a complete mystery to me.

Other bands wanted to wreck hotel rooms; Roxy Music wanted to redecorate them.

It's fabulous when you do that, when you discover somebody who you like, when you kind of feel those feelings, even though he articulates them better.

I like the name Atomic Kitten. It's so great.
