When I went to record my first album, which should have been a punk album, there was a synthesiser in the control room. I'd never seen one before but they let me have a go on it and I loved it to bits.
I was being laughed at. I hated it, so I made an adjustment to control the situation. All comics learn that.
By the age of 17, for me, we had got an recording contract, and, boom, I was gone.
I love the sound of '70s glam records. I love that snare sound. The recordings I like, it's all based on if the snare sounds good. The drums have to sound great.
There's nothing cure or funny or lovable about being cheap. It's a total turn-off.
I'm very happy being me, although sometimes I'd love to be a bird so that I could fly.
Lead roles are fun, but I'm especially happy other, more colorful supporting stuff has come along.
So, I lived at the Beijing Opera, I ate there, I learned a craft. And the money we made went into the company.
Conversely, I came to realize that being good at something is hardly a reason to avoid doing it.
