Ronan Keating, 29, a former member of the band Boyzone, releases his new album 'Bring You Home' on 5 June. He has teamed up with the British folk singer Kate Rusby for the first single, 'All Over Again'.

My new single All Over Again is about...

Rewinding and starting again.

If I wasn't talking to you right now I'd be...

Playing golf. Very rock'n' roll!

A phrase I use far too often is...

Fair play to you.

I wish people would take more notice of...

My big feet.

The most surprising thing to happen to me was...

Joining Boyzone.

A common misperception of me is...

I say "fair play to you" too many times.

I'm not a politician but...

If I were I would persuade the IMF and World Bank to change trade rules on all developing countries.

I'm good at...

Golf-some of the time.

But I'm very bad at...

Golf-some of the time.

The ideal night out is...

Dinner with my mates, then we go to the casino.

The best age to be is...

Whatever age you're happiest at. Age never really affected me - I just enjoy the moment.

With thanks to Regina!
