Up until I became a father, it was all about self-obsession. But then I learned exactly what it's all about: the delight of being a servant.

What helped a lot was becoming a dad at 47. I can't begin to imagine how I would have coped when I was just starting out with Simply Red. Gabriella and I would have been another one of those divorce statistics.

I would have to say the person with whom I am most in love is definitely my son, Everly Bear. Although I'm his dad, I'm also his friend.

As a father now, I wouldn't do what my dad did, because it left me feeling emotionally unstable as a kid. But he didn't do the things he did out of selfishness or malice.

I think my dad is a lot cooler than other dads. He still acts like he's still 17.

I know my dad is a big Internet freak, and he's been known to be a Wikileaker.
