On the most impressive person he has ever met...
"My wife. My mum is a staggering individual. McCartney because he’s McCartney and he’s still a dude. There’s no such thing as The Greatest, but David Bowie would be way up there. Neil Young, he’s just a fucking dude. I want to be Neil Young when I grow up - that’s what I want to be. John Lydon is initially intimidating, but really he just wants a cuddle and for you to tell him you love him. Weller is a genius. Johnny Marr is a genius. Morrissey is fucking devastatingly cutting and funny and he’s not got a good word to say about anyone or anything and I love him for that. He’s misunderstood for sure."
On his kids.. “I don’t want my fucking kids talking like Ali G, I’d like them to get on in life…”
On his life... "A champagne cork popping and the Pogues’ track Fiesta - that’s the sound of my social life.
On his opinions... “my opinion is not wrong or right - it’s just an opinion…”
