Fabulous place, Dublin is. The trouble is, you work hard and in Dublin you play hard as well.

When you're in the music business, every day is the same. If you work 9 to 5, you can't wait for the weekend, but in the music business, you don't know one day from the next. It's always the weekend.

It's no good singing if you just want to be a pop star; you've got to work at it and do it for the love for it, not because you think it will make you famous.

I went to all the shops in the village looking for work. I didn't have any qualifications.

I'm definitely working class, and I always will be.
