Rick Astley’s 5 most popular quotes
- You can’t explain the feeling of singing hit songs to an audience – it’s like being a genuine sports star at the peak of their powers.
- I’d had my time in the charts and made loads of money. I was no longer hungry for success.
- I don’t trust politicians. I think that by the time they’ve made it, with the concessions they’ve had to make in that position, I don’t believe they still have the beliefs they had at the root.
- Dont expect fame to come overnight. That filtered through to me in my own career. Look at Madonna: shes not the best singer in the world, but shes got where she has through hard work.
- I must admit, the constant invasion of privacy was becoming a real concern. Ive been asked for autographs while Ive been doing laps in the pool and even in the toilet!
