I like the idea of being alone. I like the idea of often being alone in all aspects of my life. I like to feel lonely. I like to need things.

Alone I'm nothing.

It's not some great work of beauty and love to be a rock-and-roll singer.

Whenever I have bid a hasty goodbye to a loved one, I've always made sure that my record collection was safely stored away in the boot of the car.

I have to try and change the landscape, whatever it is.
