I don't get tired of playing "Margaritaville". It's paid my bills for years.

If fidelity really mattered, 'Loveless' wouldn't be one of the best records of all time.

I wanted a participation song, something the fans could latch on to. It was aimed at the masses. I wanted to write something that everyone could sing along to, like a football chant. And at the same time, I thought it would be nice to have a winning song that's meant for everybody. It worked a treat.

That was really when the Queen volcano erupted, when it suddenly just went bang!

What we've had to do is learn to control success, put it in perspective, and not lose the essence of what we're doing - the music.

I don't have to perform to stay in the public eye anymore. I really don't. I am who I am and what I do on musical stage these days really makes no difference at all. I already have all the momentum there. I am only doing it because I love to do it.
