I did things with the microphone stand that no-one else has attempted to do.
I don't enjoy songwriting.
I don't have any social life or anything.
I enjoy a glass of wine, and I love my football. I suppose it's because I'm a real working-class.
I hated singing and getting up in front of crowds.
I have a voice coach, but only in so much as to make my voice stronger so I can sing for five nights a week, two hours.
I think, with suits and clothes, if you keep them long enough, they all come back in fashion.
I was never a good-looking bloke. Not by a long chalk.
I'm just delighted that this woman I love can be a mum again.
I'm not a natural songwriter.
I've always looked on myself as one of a band and never sought a solo career.
I've tried to have a regular haircut, but it just pops back up again, so this is the way it's going to be.
I am passionate about football. My support for Celtic FC has got me through some hard times in my life. I still play regularly, too.
Listen, if my career was to end tomorrow, I would have no complaints whatsoever.
