Is there not a sort of remorse that precedes sin? Was it remorse at the very fact that I existed?
I just want people to understand have fun, enjoy your time, enjoy your time on this Earth.
Do your thing. Do it unapologetically. Don't be discouraged by criticism. You probably already know what they're going to say. Pay no mind to the fear of failure. It's far more valuable than success. Take ownership, take chances, and have fun. And no matter what, don't ever stop doing your thing.
Happiness isn't about getting what you want all the time; it's about loving what you have.
I really care about where things are going. I care about what people are feeling and I like to ask the question why.
When I was younger I didn't want to listen to anybody, but now more than ever where I am in my life I understand how important it is to listen, observe, absorb, and let that all come out through your music.
You see a lot of people get into 40, 50 years old and have these mid-life crises' or whatever their called because they realize they haven't been doing anything their whole life that makes them happy.
The common good and the individual good rarely coincide.
I didn't want people to think I'm just in the movies, where you make money and wait around for 13 hours before you get to do 20 minutes of work.
I leave at half-time; by then you can see which way it's going. If you ask me to name five of our team, I couldn't. There's that guy who scores goals - Taarabt. Routledge I've heard of. All bloody nice guys but I don't mix with them so I don't know them well. I don't go in the dressing room. They can walk out of the showers and I feel I've got an inferiority complex.
And the thing that I always tried to do with important singers when I met them was to sit down and record everything they knew, give them a first real run-through of their art.
