Of Course I Have Regrets; I'm Not

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.

I Thought I Wanted To Go To Drama School Or University, And That Would Have Been A Completely Different Life. But What Got Me Was The Sound, And Hearing It. Hearing Everything So Loud, I Loved That Back In The Studio. I Loved That From The Very Beginning.

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.

All I Have To Do Is What's Right For Me.

France Has Been Very Good For Me. It Has Given Me A Very Worldly-cool Attitude.
