मैंने शुरुआती कुछ साल ब्रेक लेकर उनसे उबरने में बिताए। मुझे यह भी नहीं पता था कि आज कौन सा दिन है या अब मैं कौन हूँ, इसलिए मैंने इस सबका अंत करने का एक सचेत प्रयास किया। वैसे भी मुझे लगता था कि एक पॉप स्टार के तौर पर मेरे दिन गिने-चुने हैं। मेरी एक प्रेमिका थी, हमारी एक बेटी थी, और मेरे पास कुछ पैसे थे, इसलिए मैंने बस आराम करने के लिए समय निकाला
I took the first few years off and spent them recovering. I didn't even know what day it was or who I was anymore, so I made a conscious effort to end it all. I thought my days were numbered as a pop star anyway. My girlfriend and I had a daughter, I had some money, so I just took the time off to chill out

मुझे पॉप की दुनिया का नया चेहरा बने रहने के अपने १५ मिनट मिले, ठीक मेरी तरह मुझसे पहले और मेरे बाद आने वाले कई लोगों की रातों-रात, हर कोई आपके साथ अलग तरह से पेश आने लगता है और आपको अलग नजरिए से देखने लगता है
I had my 15 minutes of being the new boy of pop, like lots of people before and after me. Overnight, everyone starts treating you differently, and perceives you differently
