I always saw myself as a singer-songwriter, a solo-artist, that's why working with other artists was never satisfying for me.
I've never got on with the British press because they've always given me such a hard time. Once they build a band up they just want to do people down. They shouldn't concentrate on the colour of someone's shirt they should listen to the music.
There's something to be said in favor of working in isolation in the real world.
