Kylie Minogue is just a demonic little idiot as far as I'm concerned. She gets cool dance producers to work with her for some bizarre reason, I don't know why. She doesn't even have a good name. It's a stupid name, Kylie, I just don't get it. Hide

I fucking love U2 and I always have done - I love the size of that band. Whether you like them or not, you cannot deny that U2 have written some great fucking songs. People will not accept that Bono is sincere - in this cynical age, they think he's really just a c**t. But he's not. Hide

I'm not sure about this Live 8 (2005) thing. Correct me if I am wrong, but are they hoping that one of these guys from the G8 is on a quick 15-minute break at Gleneagles and sees Annie Lennox singing 'Sweet Dreams' and thinks, 'Fuck me, she might have a point there, you know.' It's not going to fucking happen, is it? Keane doing 'Somewhere Only We Know' and some Japanese businessman going: 'Aw, look at him ... we should really fucking drop that debt, you know.' It's not going to happen, is it? Hide

The Sex Pistols I was into. I was just too young for them, but the first band that I'd seen and had a connection with was The Jam and seeing The Jam on The Old Grey Whistle Test (1971). And after that it was The Smiths and New Order, and they were from Manchester and that was mind-blowing. But the first band that I'd seen that I thought 'I can do that' was The Stone Roses. Hide

[on breaking up his act with brother Liam, who had threatened him] It was a really unnecessary violent act, and he was swinging his guitar around and nearly took my face off with it. He doesn't like me, in a violent way. I don't get on with him, but he takes it to a *new* level. There's no point in being in a band with people you fight with. I kind of did everybody a favor. Hide

I fucking despise hip hop. Loathe it. Eminem is a fucking idiot and I find 50 Cent the most distasteful character I have ever crossed in my life. It's so negative. Eminem's new song about his kid - isn't it the most ridiculous piece of music you have ever heard in your life? I just don't like the dragging women around on dog leads and all that stuff. I'm not fucking having that. I'm not saying they're directly responsible but that's how you end up with these fucking gangs of youths with hoods stabbing people. I'm not saying they need to sit around listening to 'All You Need is Love'. But kids are so fucking thick these days that they are very easily influenced, aren't they? Hide

The boy bands of the day such as Spandau Ballet and Duran Duran could all play their instruments. It's so far removed from the bands of today like Westlife and Boyzone, who are utter shit. I am not a fan of Duran Duran or Spandau Ballet, but now there is pop music and alternative music and there is nothing in between the two. Hide
