A happy wife is a happy life.

Any reaction is better than none.
Gavin Rossdale

As an artist, you're pretty sheltered backstage. You often don't know what's going on out there.
Gavin Rossdale

As much as we all love playing live, it's not normal to be on the road all the time, to have no home.
Gavin Rossdale

Being real is what is important.

Bob Dylan has a way with words that simply blows me away. When he forgets his lyrics he just makes up new ones on the spot, that is what I called talented!
Gavin Rossdale

Dub and reggae... I play that a lot around the house.
Gavin Rossdale

For some critics we might be uncool on account of our popularity.
Gavin Rossdale

For the sound we produce, everybody is equally important. Each of us has a very different personality and that is what keeps Bush alive.
Gavin Rossdale

I always wrote about things that were important to me. I think our past success showed that it was also important for a lot of others.
Gavin Rossdale


I am really addicted to music.
Gavin Rossdale

I don't know any musician who got to the top without hard work. Take whoever you want. They all work bloody hard, harder than you think.
Gavin Rossdale

I don't see myself as the boss. I sing and write the songs, and it would feel strange if somebody else wrote the lyrics I sang.
Gavin Rossdale

I have always been fascinated by dark and mysterious stuff. I guess I have a pretty dark and gloomy side. Writing songs saves me from going completely gonzo.
Gavin Rossdale

I love playing live, I don't like studios all that much. I need the reaction of the audience.
Gavin Rossdale

I love seeing the fans of the music that I make.
Gavin Rossdale

I love what I'm doing most of the time, but it's hard work. People only see your albums in the charts. They see us at award shows and after-show parties. They don't know about your doubts, the hard work that goes in.
Gavin Rossdale

I pretty much grew up when punk was big in the UK. The Sex Pistols were heroes for me. I used to run around like Johnny Rotten. I had a jacket like his.
Gavin Rossdale

I quite like Low, the band from Minnesota. They're absolutely mesmerizing. I get much the same feeling from anything that Will Oldham does.
Gavin Rossdale

I think it's pretty normal that there are a lot of people out there who don't like us.
