three obsession music-is
Music became an obsession, and eventually we felt more comfortable with each other then we did with anyone else. The three of us were like one person.
reading book ideas
My idea of a good time is creating something and reading a good book.
zero heart two
If the heart stops for more than two minutes, you have massive brain death. There are only two minutes between our conscious world and zero. That's how fragile our consciousness is.
long world wonder
I don't take things for granted, because everything feels more fragile. It's made me wonder about mortality and how long you've got somebody in the world. I'm more fearful than I used to be.
soul black style
The Bee Gees were always heavily influenced by black music. As a songwriter, it's never been difficult to pick up on the changing styles of music out there, and soul has always been my favourite genre.
bees proud bee-gees
I'm very proud of being a Bee Gee and am always aware that I'll be identified as a Bee Gee.
years spur-of-the-moment next-year
I haven't really met anyone else who has influenced me, but you never know, it could happen next year or next month. I just like to go with the spur of the moment.
years might lasts
If even a small portion of the praise that is bestowed on Michael Jackson now in death was given to him last year, in life, he might well still be with us.
