| Q. Did you have an imaginary childhood friend? "Yeah, for two years Mum and Dad took me to a psychiatrist cos I was a real crazy ass. I used to have fits when I was about two years old and thats when I started to have my friend, Robin. It was really seriouse. If I sat down to dinner and it was just my family that had plates, I'd cry and throw tantrums 'cos they hadn't made food for Robin. And if Dad went to sit down I'd scream, "Your going to sit on Robin!" and Dad would be like, "OK." If he ever bought chocolates for me he had to buy one for Robin. I could actually see him. I swear to God. he was so real!" |
| "When it comes to just being a person and living a normal life and actually having a laugh, I didn't for a year." |
| Q. Whats your idea of perfect happiness? "Just being comfortable with yourself. I think that anyone who's unhappy is probably not very comfortably with themselves. Thats why most people find contentment in middle age. They don't worry anymore about image or how people see them. I have phobias, really bad anxiety problems. I have to take medication whenevre Im going to be in large groups of people. I can sing infront of 50,000 people but as soon as Im among them I freak out. Im really claustrophobic as well. I've been caught in six lifts in my life. One time I was in there for 3 hours by myself and it was totally dark and I was just sitting in the corner pressing the alarm button. I was freaking out and sweating. And then I herd this tapping on the roof, and I was like, "Thank fuck, about fucking time!" |

| Q. Whats the most embarrassing situation you've ever been in? I don't get embarrassed by things I do. sometimes I say things on stage that are totally irrelevant or stupid just cos Im off in my own world and afterwards people ask 'What did you mean?', and Im like, 'I don't know'. But there was a time in Germany and I really needed to do a piss so I put my quitar down and dashed off and Ben and Chris were left on stage for five minutes while I was back stage looking everywhere for a toilet. I had to explain to everyone where I'd gone. |
| "I'm definitely not straight-edge. I mean, I'll take certain stimulants if you know what I mean, when Im at parties but nothing too out of control. A lot of people get drugs and drug addicts mixed up. I'm not hugly into drugs, but its good to experiment now and again" |
