Quotes
I'm not a big fan of football records. I thought Three Lions was quite a good anthem and World In Motion was a good record, apart from the John Barnes rap.
I think English people were a lot better at breakdancing than they were at making records.
I try to make people smile and dance, not think about things or educate them.
I make music for the hips, not the head.
