Certainly in the modern age where everything is glossed over, when somebody speaks their mind, the majority of the public go, I'd love to have said that.
— Pete Waterman
Give the public what they want. What you want is unimportant.
I think Robbie Williams is an utter and complete prat. His last record was a pile of rubbish.
I was very cheap - that's the way I'd always worked.
It is dishonest the way that people suddenly think they've found guitars, and wear their guitar as a badge.
Reality TV is here, it's been here really since the Carol Levis Discovery Show in 1957. It's never changed. It just looks a bit different.
There's a certain edge about cruelty. If you're honest about it, most people wince, but say it had to be said.
Everybody likes a roller coaster ride.
I don't mind losing, but I don't like losing to cheats.
I think that's where reality TV works - you don't know where it's going.
I'm not going to say that every record I've put out was the greatest record in history, but I'd stand by even the bad ones. Don't make excuses, make hits.
Past is past.
Spin Me Round was number one all over the world, everywhere. It changed the face of pop music, no question. We took technology further than Trevor Horn.
Everything I touch turns to gold.
I laughed, even if I was the butt of the joke.
I thought if Oasis could get away with sounding like The Beatles, I could get away with sounding like Abba.
If you're rude for television's sake, it ain't reality TV.
Reality TV finds talented people. There are no scripts. The editing is what it's all about. Great editing makes those shows.
The public are not stupid.
