After my second-to-last record 'The Greatest' I had gone on tour for a while and I didn't play an instrument for about five years. And I got kind of - it's not self-esteem or whatever or anger toward myself - but disappointed in myself that I hadn't been challenging myself to learn musically.
I did not want to put myself on the line as an Australian playing Britain's greatest comic actor. The fans of Sellers are obsessive possessive - and aggressive. I did not want to risk their anger - or my own reputation.
The greatest remedy for anger is delay.
'Breaking Bad' is the best the greatest the most amazing thing I have ever watched on television.
The greatest thing about doing this movie was that Chris and I both were involved in folk music in the '60s. I had a group but I don't think it was at the same level as Chris because he's an amazing musician.
I definitely look up to Meryl Streep because she's been in so many amazing movies and I just think that she's one of the greatest actresses out there. I also look up to Jennifer Lawrence especially knowing her and knowing that she is so awesome and so nice.
The thing that's tricky is sometimes the best voices - just because someone hits the big notes and sounds amazing - it doesn't necessarily mean they make the greatest artists.
I think that marriage is an amazing institution and should be preserved and you can have great marriages and you must because sharing your life with someone is like the greatest thing. And I loved being able to set a good example for that on television.
I come back to the same thing: We've got the greatest pipeline in the company's history in the next 12 months and we've had the most amazing financial results possible over the last five years and we're predicting being back at double-digit revenue growth in fiscal year '06.
If government and media and all of us in the Australian tribe got together and the rock industry we'd just be the greatest cultural force the world has ever seen - we're such an amazing race.
