There were only two times in my life when I've actually felt down about things and gotten myself into a full mental mess. One of the times was in 1982.

I've got a Facebook page, but I've never put anything on it. I've got a presence on all the social networks, in fact, but I've never once sent a message. I'm there because, otherwise, someone's going to pretend to be me.

You know, the Internet's made us more aware of what people think about us.

I married somebody who likes the way I look. If I changed my hair every year, and I reinvented myself in time-honoured pop fashion, I think understandably the person I'm married to would grow slightly sick of me.

You can't drink on an eight hour flight, pass out, and then go onstage... well you can, but then you're Spandau Ballet.
