It's Always Nice To Be Able To

Being Sent Away To Boarding School At Seven Is As Great An Inspiration As Any Songwriter Could Have - To Be Taken Away From One's Family And Locked Away For 10 Years. It Does Create An Incredible Intensity Of Emotion.

I Write, "give Me Reason But Don't Give Me Choice, Because I'll Make The Same Mistake Again." I Think That's What Most Men Want To Be Told.

I Always Wanted To Be A Muppet. So When 'sesame Street' Approached Me To Guest Star, I Thought: 'i'm Going To Be On This!' It's Pretty Incredible Stuff.

Sometimes, Reading My Own Media, The Negativity Can Upset Me, But I Just Deal With Things On A Positive Basis. I Mean, I Have Up To 20,000 People Singing My Words Back To Me On A Nightly Basis - They Share My Hopes And Fears, And They Relate To My Own Life Experiences. Life Can Be Pretty Isolating, But That Connection Is Always Amazing.

Maybe I Should Try Singing Like A Man.
