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 didn't have any inhibitions. I saw Elvis and Gene Vincent, and I thought, 'Well, I can do this.' And I liked doing it. It's a real buzz, even in front of 20 people, to make a complete fool of yourself. But people seemed to like it. And the thing is, if people started throwing tomatoes at me, I wouldn't have gone on with it. But they all liked it, and it always seemed to be a success, and people were shocked. I could see it in their faces.

People strive for success, but it's very lonely at the top. Now I realise the ultimate prize is a family.

I hate the idea of success robbing you of your private life.

The barrier to success is not something which exists in the real world; it is composed purely and simply of doubts about ability.

There's not an instruction manual on how to deal with success, so you just have to rely on having great friends and a good team.
