rap people hip-hop
I don't dislike rappers or hip-hop or people who like it. I went to the Def Jam tour in Manchester in the '80s when rap was inspirational. Public Enemy were awesome. But it's all about status and bling now, and it doesn't say anything to me.
relevant
The charts are only relevant when you're top of them!
being-famous
I absolutely loved being famous. It was all great, up until the point when it wasn't.
times-like-these trying modest
It is hard to be modest at times like these so I won't even try...you are all shite!
genius equal buffoons
I'm equal part genius, equal part buffoon.
rap people use
Anything that's of any use, famous people get hold of it and take it for themselves and it gets a bad rap.
parent nine months
Women have nine months more experience than you do - nine months to prepare for being a parent.
mirrors honest intention
If everyone in the music business were brutally honest about what their intentions were then you could sort things out, but it's all smoke and mirrors.
kings destiny people
Is it any wonder why Princes & Kings / Are clowns that caper in their sawdust rings / When ordinary people who are like you and me / Are the builders of their destiny.
bees albums stuff
I love the Bee Gees, but only the pre-disco stuff. From '64 to '69, I've got all their albums.
wipe poverty stage
You can't put a load of rockstars up on a stage and expect to wipe out global poverty. That's ludicrous.
rocks want rock-n-roll
Rock n' roll to me is all about freedom of thought and to be whatever you want to be.
kind enough all-kinds
I'm not technically proficient enough to attempt all kinds of music.
regression sideways progression
Progression is going forwards. Going backwards is regression. Going sideways is just gression.
