I've been through Hell with some of the members of my old band, and Hell is highly stressful. |
For 24 hours a day, for 10 years, all I thought about was being in a band. That's all I did. I had no other social life. I don't want my life to be like that now. I've spent the past 10 years having a real life as well. But Spandau Ballet is such a difficult shadow to outrun. |
We were on the cover of Women's Wear Daily, which was hardly rock 'n' roll, but it pleased me. |
It's a shame because we experienced probably the greatest thing - in art, in pop - we'll ever do. And it would be good to sit around and talk about it. |
I've always thought that actors wanted to be pop musicians and pop musicians wanted to be actors. |
Pop music should be about young people. |
Your life is the same wherever you go. |
Maybe I've got to admit that what I did here was enough. I can make some more films. Maybe I'll direct a film. Maybe I'll have my musical put on stage. But nothing, really, to be absolutely honest, competes with making a very successful pop band for 10 years of my life. |
