It's a shame because we experienced probably the greatest thing - in art, in pop - we'll ever do. And it would be good to sit around and talk about it. Gary Kemp artexperiencegood Change image and share on social
I have a terrible fear of travel. Just before we go, I start to panic and tell my wife I don't want to go. It's ridiculous. But actually it's only when it's somewhere I've not been to before. Gary Kemp fearhavepanic Change image and share on social
Don't see the point in reading ghost-written autobiographies, even though some of these published lives may fascinate me. The 'ghost' is always present, manipulating an interview into first-person singular text, and it feels like I'm reading a lie. Gary Kemp autobiographyfascinatefelt share on social
Kevin Costner told me that 'True' was his and his wife's song. I'm not sure if that's a good thing because they split up soon after. Gary Kemp costnergoodkevin Change image and share on social
I keep my house tidy, because then I can think clearly. I feel the same about myself. Presenting yourself well is a working-class thing - my dad was a printer, but he wore a tie most days. The ungroomed look belongs more to the middle classes. Gary Kemp belongclassdad share on social
In the '80s the band was 24/7. You were only as good as what you were producing at any given moment. Now my family is more important. I also think having the shock of your mum and dad dying humbles you slightly. Gary Kemp 80sbanddad share on social

Maybe I've got to admit that what I did here was enough. I can make some more films. Maybe I'll direct a film. Maybe I'll have my musical put on stage. But nothing, really, to be absolutely honest, competes with making a very successful pop band for 10 years of my life. Gary Kemp absolutelyadmitband share on social
