More quotes by Gary Kemp
Kevin Costner told me that 'True' was his and his wife's song. I'm not sure if that's a good thing because they split up soon after.
Gary Kemp
The thought of going on tour with people like Toyah Wilcox is just appalling. I'm certainly not tempted.
Gary Kemp
I think sometimes my controlling instincts came out of a fear of other people.
Gary Kemp
I am a metrosexual and into male grooming - I moisturise, I exfoliate.
Gary Kemp
I keep my house tidy, because then I can think clearly. I feel the same about myself. Presenting yourself well is a working-class thing - my dad was a printer, but he wore a tie most days. The ungroomed look belongs more to the middle classes.
Gary Kemp
I've been through Hell with some of the members of my old band, and Hell is highly stressful.
Gary Kemp
Why do I find it hard to write the next line?
Gary Kemp
I've always thought that actors wanted to be pop musicians and pop musicians wanted to be actors.
Gary Kemp
Do not dehumanize others.
Gary Kemp
Don't give pain to others.
Gary Kemp
We were on the cover of Women's Wear Daily, which was hardly rock 'n' roll, but it pleased me.
Gary Kemp
It's a shame because we experienced probably the greatest thing - in art, in pop - we'll ever do. And it would be good to sit around and talk about it.
Gary Kemp
I am a person who holds the aesthetic high. I have suits made in Savile Row.
Gary Kemp
Punk was sort of an angry stance against things that had happened just before, against the pop of glam rock, against progressive rock. Music had become very staid and it was about the playing and people obsessed. Eric Clapton was God and we needed an enema within the art form, and punk did do that.
Gary Kemp
I detest that saying Everything happens for a reason its nonsense.
Gary Kemp
I think I tried to control situations within my first marriage and I wasn't the easiest person to live with.
Gary Kemp
Road cycling, especially up mountains. It's the heady mixture of endorphins and aesthetics that I love. My wife does it too, and being with her in extreme but beautiful conditions adds to the experience and our relationship.
Gary Kemp
In the '80s the band was 24/7. You were only as good as what you were producing at any given moment. Now my family is more important. I also think having the shock of your mum and dad dying humbles you slightly.
Gary Kemp
For 24 hours a day, for 10 years, all I thought about was being in a band. That's all I did. I had no other social life. I don't want my life to be like that now. I've spent the past 10 years having a real life as well. But Spandau Ballet is such a difficult shadow to outrun.
Gary Kemp
It's always an honour doing anything for your country.
