Fabulous place, Dublin is. The trouble is, you work hard and in Dublin you play hard as well.
You think the Welsh are friendly, but the Irish are fabulous.
Every time I release an album my old record company releases another one.
Holding out for a hero 'til the end of the night!
I've never taken drugs. My drug, I suppose, is drink. I never drink before I sing, but I do make up for it when I come off!
We stay in U2's hotel. They bought a hotel, The Clarence, a nice place and it's in an area where everything's happening, so many fantastic restaurants and bars and the people are so friendly.
Where have all the good men gone, and where are all the gods? Where's the street-wise Hercules, to fight the rising odds?
In 1983 I'd had a number one. I'd sold 6 million copies of Total Eclipse Of The Heart all over the world.
I need a hero, I'm holding out for at hero 'till the end of the night He's gotta be strong and he's gotta be fast And he's gotta be fresh from the fight I need a hero, I'm holding out for a hero 'till the morning light He's gotta be sure and it's gotta be soon And he's gotta be larger than life, larger than life
They say that your first love never dies. You can put out the flames, but not the fire.
Once upon a time I was falling in love, now I'm only falling apart.
It ain't wise to need someone -- As much as I depended on you.
The way we work is to make sure you are picking the right songs. You do 12 rough demos and you only pick six songs out of that to start with.
Once upon a time I was falling in love but now I'm only falling apart. There's nothing I can do, a total eclipse of the heart.
