I Think It's A Great Shame That

The First Opera I Went To See Was Maria Callas Singing 'tosca'.

I'm Interested In Time, Fame, Death, Beauty, Truth, All Those Things.

I Like My Work, But My Life Always Comes First. I Always Wanted To Have A Beautiful Life, And The Way To Do It Is In Show Business.

My First Job Was Singing At The Hammersmith Odeon. It Was Years Ago, So I Can't Remember Who I Was Performing With. I Was A Sort Of Anti-climax After Two Hours Of Heavy Rock-'n'-roll. Seventeen Years Old In A White Dress. It Was The First Time That I Got Applause. Wonderful, That Noise In My Ears.

My Father Belonged To A Commune, And The Food Was Ghastly. My Idea Of Food Hell Is The Salad Cream They'd Pour All Over Bits Of Lettuce, Cucumber And Tomato. It Was Just Disgusting.
