I'm very romantic.

I'm quite grounded.

My tennis skills are okay.

If they would have told me when I was just 18 that I was going to have a career that would last so long, I’d have said it was impossible, that it was crazy that that could happen in my life, so I’m happy to be here. To be able to go out on stage every day.

My grandfather’s 86 and he’s having a baby. Man, I hope when I’m 86 I can have babies.

The only thing I have no control over is the politics that goes on within the record company. It’s always been the same, but it’s far tougher now, because record companies are run by financial people; before, they were run by creative people.

And people coming up asking for autographs, there’s only one time when it kind of bothers me: when I’m eating.

I am really passionate about sports in general – especially water sports.

We all feel love, and that might sound kind of corny, but I really feel that’s what joins musicians together around the world.

If you’re buying an album because of the face on it, you’re stupid.
