What I like about Elvis is the same I like about James Brown, Michael Jackson, Prince. These guys, back in the day, there was no smoke and mirrors. It was just raw talent.

The colored folks been singing it and playing it just like I'm doin' now, man, for more years than I know. I got it from them.

When we were kids growing up in Liverpool, all we ever wanted to be was Elvis Presley.

Amy [Winehouse] changed pop music forever, I remember knowing there was hope, and feeling not alone because of her. She lived jazz, she lived the blues.

If I could go back in time and see any band, It would be Link Wray and the Raymen.

I'll never be Bob Dylan. He's the master.
