I look thuggish when I shave my head and wear big boots. I walk into a newsagent and people think I'm going to jump the counter.

I've always spent more time with a smile on my face than not, but the thing is, I don't write about it.

Hendrix was the first person I had come across who seemed completely free, and when you're nine or 10, your life is entirely dominated by adults. So he represented this thing that I wanted to be. Hendrix was the first person who made me think it might be good to be a singer and a guitarist - before that I wanted to be a footballer.

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.

There's no hope of me becoming completely relaxed on stage. If I did, I'd sit down and doze off.

I do a job I really, really love and I kind of have fun with. People think you can't be grown up unless you're moaning about your job.

For a period in the '90s, I felt that the Cure was massively undervalued. But there has been a paradigm shift. There's a bunch of newer bands coming up who've grown up listening to the Cure and don't understand that you're not supposed to like us.

I just don't feel comfortable anymore with the kind of attention that I'm getting. It's purely the numbers of people that want a bit of the Cure or want a bit of me.

I don't find the technology threatening. A lot of people my age, my generation, find it difficult to immerse themselves. But I would never preclude the idea of using any technology if I thought it suited the end result.

My earliest memories are sitting on the beach at Blackpool, and I know that if I went back, it would be horrible. I know what Blackpool's like - it's nothing like I imagined it was as a child.

I think, at heart, unless you discover faith in something else, something other, it's very hard to shake the thing that you're adrift alone.
