I've had days when I go in my bedroom for 24 hours at a time. I call them my Cilla Black days, and they're literally black days. It's like the old Boomtown Rats song 'I Don't Like Mondays.' You just want to shut the whole day down.
When the Happy Mondays started I was like the dad of the band.
The reason it's called "Grape Nuts" is that it contains "dextrose," which is also sometimes called "grape sugar," and also because "Grape Nuts" is catchier, in terms of marketing, than "A Cross Between Gerbil Food and Gravel," which is what it tastes like.
When Happy Mondays came out, that was different to all the music around then.
The grape gains its purple tinge by looking at another grape. [Lat., Uvaque conspecta livorem ducit ab uva.]
The grape becomes tinted from the grape it comes in contact with.
In a funny sort of way, the ramshackle bunch known as the Happy Mondays were a lifesaver for me.
It's too easy to say that orange is happy and black is sad. To me, black is perfect. You can fill it with the emotion you want to express.
Happy days are here again, The skies above are clear again: Let us sing a song of cheer again, Happy days are here again!
When I was younger we had a grape arbor, and my mom would go out and pick grapes and make grape jam in the sink - boil it, put it in jars, and give it away as gifts.
Mainstream media has convinced people that black people aren't relatable. So when a Jewish person comes up to me and is all, 'Oh man, I love that one scene from Episode 3, I watch it over and over again,' I'm so happy. Because that's what I want.
I think it's so foolish for people to want to be happy. Happy is so momentary--you're happy for an instant and then you start thinking again. Interest is the most important thing in life; happiness is temporary, but interest is continuous.
When I was approached to be the 'Bachelorette,' I was like, 'Uh, no. I don't think I can do this again.' It was conversations that I had with people that said, 'I'm so happy to see a Black woman represented well in a franchise, or 'I'm watching this show again because you did it,' that renewed my wanting to be part of this franchise.
Seriously, I do 20 lengths a day. I get a few funny looks in the pool from people who think, 'Isn't that that Happy Mondays geezer? What's he doing here?'
When the Happy Mondays first got famous, I just thought, 'I deserve this, I deserve to sell records.'
I just felt as though I would never be happy again, and as if I had fallen into a big black hole.
