When I stopped Simply Red the reason was to bring up my daughter Romy. I wanted to be a dad that was around.

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

My dad, like, he's the most trusting human in the world.

My dad is adorably optimistic, positive, pie-in-the-sky. He thinks every new song I write is my best. He sells T-shirts at my merchandise stands and hands out guitar picks to fans.

My father was a management genius. But what I really wanted was a dad.

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.
