“You’ve got to hand it to Paul Weller. He’s come up with two of the worst names of all time. Three if you count ‘Paul Weller’ which is, let’s face it, a crap name for a singer.”
“Elvis Costello? Bloody terrible. Have you seen him on the telly? All fat and sweaty. Looks horrible. Can’t dance either.”
“What a twat Nick Cave was. I remember in the NME they used to have these ‘death lists’ and on the top of Cave’s was the Crucial Three. And I was at some festival in Holland, and he was there, and I thought ‘Come on, kill me’. But he never had a go. What a twat. I’d have concreted him. He’d be in the Hudson Bay now. You can tell him, if I’m still on his death list he can try it and I’ll soddin’ kill him. Twat. Australian, dingo-shagging turd. And he’s a fake, and he can’t sing. Fucking has-been junkie. He can’t even OD. But anyway… Nick babe, I fucking love you. You fucking Antipodean twat. Kangaroo is all he is. Delusions of syringe-dom.”
“Bono is penguining around the studio, wearing his big Orson Welles hat and these ridiculous Cuban heels. So then he sidles right up to me and says, 'It's great that we're both on the show. You know what it means? We're going to change the whole world. This is our mission, y'know.' And I'm thinking, 'See ya later, Fatso.' Not that he was fat exactly. But he was a squatty little turd. And I thought, 'What the hell's he going on about anyway? We've just got nothing at all to do with what he's doing.”
“Who buys U2 records anyway? It's just music for plumbers and bricklayers. Bono, what a slob. You'd think with all that climbing about he does, he'd look real fit and that. But he's real fat, y'know. Reminds me of a soddin' mountain goat.”
“I wouldn’t have thought any band could make it with a W.C. Fields lookalike for a singer. If Jim Morrison looked like Jim Kerr, he’d still be alive”
“We are the only important band.”
“I know John Lennon compared himself to Jesus, but that wasn’t quite the same as saying better.”
"The only inferiority complex I've got is about other people being inferior."
“I’m the son of God.”
“I am the king of rock and roll” _________________
