One of the best interview Jay did
| Quote: |
The broad public perception of me is driving fast cars, likes women, sits with his feet up in the countryside and doesn't do any work. I actually do work, I haven't got a current girlfriend and I've hardly driven a car all year. No, I'm not banned at the moment.
People being inhumane and cruel to trusting, loving pets should have much stiffer sentences, not just community service. I'd give them five years, preferably on a remote Scottish island with very little to eat.
Coke screws you up, but then again I had some quite groovy times snorting and fizzing. I've also had some very bad times. I was absolutely wasted once and my heart was, to quote Withnail And I, beating like a fucked clock. I'd done a little cocktail of devious things and thought, 'I've overdone it here'.
I had an identical twin brother who died at six weeks old. He had severe brain damage. As I get older I do tend to think about what we could have done together and how different life might have been. When I was in my coke time I felt like if I had a twin brother I could have phoned him up and said, 'I'm fucked here'. But I don't call anybody when I have a problem. I deal with it myself.
I never think I've been a playboy, but then again, I think proper playboys are a bit tacky. Nothing's good enough for them. I don't mind staying in a five-star hotel, but I'm just as happy sleeping in a tent.
I first saw a girl naked when I was about 13 or 14. She was a lot older than me. I thought, 'This is great, I'll have some more of this.' I'm sure I did have some dry years, but that was basically when I roamed around with a skateboard, had no money and wore a pair of kneepads.
Most of my friends are people I have a working relationship with, of some sort. I'm pretty short on friends because I'm pretty short on trust.
I nearly had a punch-up the other night. Someone was just being irritating, trying to wind me up. If you want to pull the tiger's tail, he's going to come out and jump on you. When I see these people poking polar bears through the bars at zoos and they get mauled, I think that's great.
I'm not unlucky in love, I just like to make sure I choose the right person. There's got to be a mixture of good company, knowing when to leave each other alone. And I do like my sex ... I don't want to end up with somebody who sticks her pyjamas on and will only have sex if you're in bed.
It would be nice to step back in time a bit. Walk out of the door, see somebody, smile and say, 'Good morning, how are you?' We've totally lost that in this country, that sense of politeness.
If you're buying a second-hand car, get the AA to check it out.
I've been wearing hats since I was around 17. My first one was an upturned bag that I got from Oxfam. I just took a shine to it.
There are vastly exaggerated reports of my wealth. Did I really spend 75 grand in Harvey Nichols? No, I would never spend 75 grand on anything unless it was metal, had four wheels and was built before 1970.
I think I'd be a great dad. I've been through enough shit myself to know what being a good dad is. I didn't meet my dad until I was 28, and I saw him the other week because he came to one of the shows in Bologna. I'm more concerned about my own life now, to be honest. It's very difficult to rekindle a relationship. You can't reclaim lost years.
Getting married is not something I particularly want to do. I'm not a religious person and if you have children that should be enough of a bond. I just don't want to end up in court when it all goes wrong. You only need a spiteful judge on the wrong day and you've lost everything. The next minute you go round knocking on the door asking to see your kids and the bloody gym instructor's there. I'm not having that.
You can't regret things, because they are part of the structure of your life.
We'll find out what I might be remembered for. You never know, this might just be the first stage of what I do in life. I've raised some good chunks of money for charity here and there, which is very satisfying, and if I see a guy in the street that really needs some money I don't give him a quid, I give him twenty.
I like to think I'm a reasonably decent fellow. I mean, I'm not Pol Pot. My music didn't hurt anybody.
