All I care is that my family, and my loved ones, understand me. Or that they understand me to a degree-I don't understand me very much. And I don't need the world to understand me. That is the most egocentric thing. |
Everybody gets too drunk sometimes; and even if everybody didn't, I have gotten too drunk sometimes. I haven't hurt anybody. In Ireland we drink a lot. It's part of our culture. I like drinking. I don't think it's a bad thing. |
I hate people who splash their own pain on covers, like the whole world should hear about them. Why are we all supposed to be interested in one individual's suffering? |
I just feel that if somebody happened to fancy somebody else, well, then, I should be a friend that he can say it to. |
I love reality. I love the world. I love the smell of it. I love it. |
I love watching people, and that's what I do; just go for a walk at about 4 o'clock, and go down a busy street, where you see people coming out of school and you get a glimpse of their lives, what they're talking about. |
I really love singing. |
I suppose it got more of an edgy feel, a little bit more guitar-orientated and also an Irish sound, which is in 'Forgiven, Not Forgotten,' |
I think everybody had difficulties with that dynamic, turning the family into a band and being constantly together. So everybody, as individuals. had things to sort out. |
I think paranormal experiences are very personal, again, if they are that. Yes, sometimes I've felt that some things I would personally believe enough for me to take action on it... like, you know, I felt something happen in a hotel once that made me never stay there again. |
Life takes its path and sometimes there are people to blame. Of course there are bad people in this world. Good, bad, it happens unfortunately. But in a way I think if there was more focus on the good, more good would happen. |
Musicians are probably the most uncomfortable people in themselves in the world. Happiness, I think, only exists when you're a child and once you go past 11, unfortunately it's gone. |
On the paparazzi: I just want them to catch me with my dad and try to turn it into some 'handsome, mystery hunk'. |
She used to play every weekend in pubs with Daddy, and she'd written all these Irish songs out in a book. They're songs we've loved over the years, and because our parents played them in their band, they're very special to us. |
We're all the same. We all want the same thing in life. Everybody going around like ants and we all want the same thing. And it's not one queen. It's not one queen with the wings. |
