I grew up listening to everything. And rock and roll has always been a big, big part of it - as big a part of what I do as any other type of music.
Everybody should have their own thing, and if he don't want to be a role model, that should be up to him. In the right situations, I can try to help and be a role model, but I'm still gonna speak my mind, and if that affects the role-model deal, then too bad.
I also read modern novels - I have just had to read 60 as I am one of the judges for the Orange Fiction Prize.
