In the '70s, Leo-mania was the equivalent of Beatle-mania down there and they still love me. In Australia they still want heroes.
Quote by -Leo Sayer
Because I don't go to showbiz parties, I don't have the right image. The media decides who's in and who's out.
Quote by -Leo Sayer
I would love the record industry to be more receptive to my music but all they are interested in is style over content.
Quote by -Leo Sayer
I am the kind of person who does want very badly to be liked. I'm a right-miserable little show off.
Quote by -Leo Sayer
One of the reasons I had moved to London to pursue my career was that I could go to the clubs in the evening and maybe meet my heroes, people like Donovan and Bert Jansch and Dylan. I actually did see Dylan in a club one night.
Quote by -Leo Sayer
My first two albums, 'Silverbird and 'Just a Boy,' which had the single 'Long Tall Glasses' on it, were very well received. Then I did another one, 'Another Year,' which did miserably.
Quote by -Leo Sayer
All I've ever wanted to do is master my craft. I'm a singer, and I want to be a great singer.
Quote by -Leo Sayer
I felt quite an affinity with 'Rocky' in my career. It's been like 'fight the business' all the way up.
Quote by -Leo Sayer
Kids in England will stop you on the streets and tell you bluntly they don't care for your current record. But it keeps you down to earth.
Quote by -Leo Sayer
That's the nature of the business. You can have a hit and then nothing happens all of a sudden. But I don't resent it. Hits don't make great artists.
Quote by -Leo Sayer
I keep reminding myself I'm the same guy who was lucky enough to get my break because Roger Daltrey commissioned me to write the songs for one of his earlier albums.
Quote by -Leo Sayer
Many performers try to sustain a high point in their careers by keeping themselves around those who are overanxious to tell them how good they are.
Quote by -Leo Sayer
I've always loved what I do and I've always done what I wanted to do... in this business you have got to be yourself.
Quote by -Leo Sayer
Where are the John Lennons, the Bob Marleys, the Bob Dylans? Where have they gone?
Quote by -Leo Sayer
I'm not into 'The Voice.' It's an affair between a television network and a record company.
Quote by -Leo Sayer
I really admire Ed Sheeran. He seems to have really beaten his way through and I think that's fantastic. He's his own man - good for him. But there aren't many of him out there.
Quote by -Leo Sayer
I have always believed that there is no age factor to this music business. You are only as old as you feel and basically you can be a contender at any time.
Quote by -Leo Sayer
When you've sung the same song a million or a hundred thousand times, there are always moments when you drift off and go into automatic.
Quote by -Leo Sayer
It happens in this business - The Rolling Stones were ripped off, so were the Beatles. George Harrison hardly had anything left in the end.
Quote by -Leo Sayer
In my earlier albums like 'Another Year' and 'Just A Boy,' I always saw myself as a bit of a loser - the kind of guy who takes a drink and walks into a wall instead of through the door.
Quote by -Leo Sayer
I spent some time with Bob Marley and I have to say that was like walking with a god on earth.
Quote by -Leo Sayer
Fame is always a bit crazy. You spend so long banging on the door trying to get in that when it suddenly opens, it's a very strange feeling.
Quote by -Leo Sayer
I have had a partial kneecap replacement, an irritable bowel and three stents in my heart.
Quote by -Leo Sayer
There are a million misconceptions about me but the greatest is probably that people think I'm the king of disco. I love disco but it is only one part of me.
Quote by -Leo Sayer
We used to spend a lot of time as kids in Northern Ireland, on the border and in southern Ireland as well.
Quote by -Leo Sayer
You won't find me at parties or the openings of movies and I don't hang around with David Beckham and Kanye West. So the paparazzi leave me alone, which means that I can do my shows, write music and then live a normal life.
