Music is spiritual. The music business is not.
The first piece of music that captured my imagination was probably Ray Charles Live At Newport.
A famous person to themselves, they don't get up in the morning and think, I'm famous. I'm not famous to me. Famous is a perception.
You can't stay the same. If you're a musician and a singer, you have to change, that's the way it works.
Being famous was extremely disappointing for me. When I became famous it was a complete drag and it is still a complete drag.
I'd love to live in Ireland but I'd like to live as me, not what someone thinks I am. People don't understand - I lived there before I was famous.
Every performance is different. That's the beauty of it.
