I don't fall into the category of tortured artist. But it's not made me more or less anything.

My kids have got to work themselves around my life, not the other way. That's how kids become brats, if you're there staring at them all the time going, 'Are you alright?'

I don't much like 'Wonderwall,' but the effect that song has on people, I can't deny it.

I'm a great songwriter, but I'm not the most talented musician.

As I get older, I don't aggressively pursue songs. All the great ones just appear.

Even in the nineties, when it was mad and there were photographers all around the house, it never occurred to me to send someone else out to get cigarettes. It took me five minutes - went for a walk, gave a wave, went back inside.
