I'm not an icon. Not even in America.
There's no literary merit in my books.
It's not like we don't have any talent. We can't sing like Whitney Houston, but we can sing well.
I wouldn't say that I'm the greatest guitarist ever. I'd say probably that I'm the greatest guitarist sitting in this chair.
I don't jump as high and I'm not as fast as Dwyane Wade and LeBron James. I don't have many highlight plays, but I can play this game.
I've only been blessed with one talent, unfortunately, and that's being able to sing a wee bit.
I don't remember anybody ever pointing me out as a dancing prodigy, but I played a not bad second base.
I have sung, but I haven't sung in any way that I would ever call myself 'a singer.'
Apart from the fact that I can move the bike fast, I am basically Joe Average.
I haven't played quarterback since eighth or ninth grade. I didn't see it get much attention when I completed a pass then.
I couldn't claim that I was smarter than sixty-five other guys--but the average of sixty-five other guys, certainly!
I wasn't a great background singer.
I write like a two-year-old, and I can't spell.
Sure, I can sing a country song, but so can a lot of people.
I'd like to think that centre-half is my best position.
I'm not a super dribbler.
I can wrestle a little bit, but I'm not Chael Sonnen.
I'm an OK singer.
I'm not blowing my own trumpet here, but I made a rap song 20 years ago with Afrika Bambaataa.
I hardly see myself as a futurist.
I'm a big music fan, an admirer. But I mean by no means am I about to release an album or anything.
I did study Shakespeare, that was sort of my thing; I got a Literature A-level, which is my only claim to academic fame.
I am a very ordinary singer who doesn't even do riyaz.
As much as I'd like to think I'm a really good designer, I'm average.
I'm not saying I'm the bee's knees. But I am a legitimate musician.
