Whenever you analyse anyone who has had any success and they’re in the headlines, you will find they are human and make mistakes. I’m certainly that and I’ve made a lot of mistakes.
At this point, I can’t say what network would be picking it up, but I know that it would be a success.
I put £150,000 into the stage production of Grease and have got back £1.5 million so far. It has been a fantastic success.
I used to think that losing made you more hungry and determined but after my success at the Olympics and the U.S. Open I realise that winning is the biggest motivation.
My wife Elizabeth and I started The Really Terrible Orchestra for people like us who are pretty hopeless musicians who would like to play in an orchestra. It has been a great success. We give performances we’ve become the most famous bad orchestra in the world.
I don’t like Tommy on Broadway at all. I like the music, I’m pleased with Pete’s success but I don’t like what they’ve done to it.
Elegance is not a dispensable luxury but a factor that decides between success and failure.
My overnight success was really 15 years in the making. I’d been writing songs since I was 6 and playing in bands and performing since I was 14.
In hindsight, I slid into arrogance based upon past success.
If you come into success too soon, you’ll burn out and be finished before you know it. If you let the maturation process happen naturally, you’ll be happier with yourself in the end.
