I'd love to follow the Tour de France one day. It's a really exciting spectacle. I've only seen it once as it was coming into Paris and that was very exciting for me. I have memories of that.

I suppose young people think football is glamorous - soccer - it's big money and the stars of it, they look good and have a great big house and a huge Ferrari.

It's not a very high failure rate if you choose people that you really like the sound of.

And Mary J. Blige, she's got all these fur coats and hats and stuff. She's good; I like her.

Women! I have no idea. I don't know anything about women at all. They're a complete mystery to me.

I don't think I've ever played the Olympia before, but I'm not totally sure.

But I do like to have peace and quiet for a good hour.

Performing was terrifying.

All those rappers, they're the only glamorous people working in music now. They dress up in these chains of gold, cars, girls and this and that, high-heeled shoes.

The quality of the writing, really. Simple as that. Beautiful words. It's very nice as a singer to do great songs, which have wonderful lyrics and strong feelings underneath the song.

I can never predict what's going to happen.

I mean, there are so many of his songs that I like that I could easily do that one day.

You can never get silence anywhere nowadays, have you noticed?

I had beautiful bikes and I was really into it. I just thought it was really glamorous.

But when you get music and words together, that can be a very powerful thing.

In New York, you couldn't wish for a nicer audience, or in L.A., Chicago, Boston. But when you get into secondary markets, they don't have a clue.

I like the fact that music is more abstract.

It's nice to know that there are several different avenues I could pursue.

Secretly, I wanted to look like Jimi Hendrix, but I could never quite pull it off.

I don't do interviews at all when I'm on tour, so this time, on a day off, I'll do that kind of thing a little bit. I don't do big promotion schedules, not when I'm touring.

When I stopped touring in the early '80s for a few years, it was a mistake looking back. I lost touch with my audience in a way and I think that was a bad career move.

But I don't write so much now, because they're too painful.

I like the name Atomic Kitten. It's so great.

I met John Lennon and he was with his wife in Tokyo. I met him there.

I didn't really want to give up music.

I've had quite a few moments I've liked, so it's good enough.

But I was feeling quite down at the time. I was living in L.A., which was kind of weird for me.

But when I started writing songs, I stopped painting completely, and the only art things I do are connected to the career, like album sleeves and, to some extent, posters and things like that.

Words can be very powerful. I find them very difficult.

I like L.A., but I shouldn't live there.

Oh yes, much, because music is just something that comes to you. You don't question it.

It's fabulous when you do that, when you discover somebody who you like, when you kind of feel those feelings, even though he articulates them better.

I'm not really sure what it was, the best moment. You always hope it's to come.

I did work out every day. I needed it to have the endurance to do what needed to be done and not get hurt. I have such a new respect for action stars now.

I mean the only thing that is hopefully good about us is after the arguments we can actually still face each other the next day or the day after and talk about something else and sort of get over it.

My favorite singer to this day is Nat King Cole. I've tried to emulate his phrasing. It is so absolutely beautiful to listen to his lovely voice.

I want to have babies one day but not right now. When I do it I want to do it really well. I want it to be my best project in life.

I think I've become a much better singer and a much better player. Years and years of playing a couple of hours every day will do that.

I am tomorrow, or some future day, what I establish today. I am today what I established yesterday or some previous day.

I just wrote one song at a time. Kinda like an alcoholic. One day at a time.

Working mothers do an hour more per day than working fathers do and working mothers do on average an hour more per day with the kids than working fathers do.

When it is time to get to work, I go away completely and don't do anything except the work. And that can be 16 hours a day.

George Pal had total control, and he was there on the set every day. You never met a more charming man in your entire lifetime - what a lovely gentleman.

I'll tell you what I did need to learn was tolerance, and I think I've been actually given a daily opportunity to practice that, and it's - it's - and I know that that sounds almost like a backhanded slap, and it is in a way because I haven't been successful at it every day.

Since the beginning, I always loved the game. When you grow up in Montreal, one day you want to be a professional hockey player. When I was six or seven, I knew that was what I wanted.

Depending on what day of the week it is and what time of the month it is, I'm a good friend or not a good friend. I'm more or less a good mom or not a good mom, more or less a good mate or not a good mate. That's just life, whether or not you're public.

Even if you walk exactly the same route each time - as with a sonnet - the events along the route cannot be imagined to be the same from day to day, as the poet's health, sight, his anticipations, moods, fears, thoughts cannot be the same.
