The 'Godfather of Punk' has confessed that his wild days are behind him, with The Stooges frontman now favouring a more peaceful lifestyle. He shared: "I like baths, sometimes with a rubber duck and bubbles yeah definitely bubbles."
The punk legend made this revelation at a listening party at the Cannes Film Festival, hosted by Magnum, adding: "Sometimes I get really upset if it's getting late in the day and I think to myself that I haven't done anything I really like. And music is what gives me pleasure you know, well music and the sea."
"That's my default setting, so I'm always putting my pleasure first I can get really desperate to seek pleasure and when that happens usually it means someone takes me to the beach. Chill for me is about 95 per cent of life, I'm chill all the time."
The 'Lust for Life' singer continued to reveal the two main things he needs to feel euphoric love and privacy stating: "If I get both of those in one day, then it's WOW."
But he emphasised that he still gets these feelings from music, saying: "Euphoria for me needs an external kind of agency like a killer piece of music that just makes you [go] 'WOAH'!. And you're full of surprise and it takes you somewhere."

When asked about his inspirations, he joked: "James Brown, Jerry Lewis you know, the old boys and then for somebody younger... Keith Richards."
The rock legend was speaking at a listening party after collaborating with fellow music icon, Siouxsie Sioux, to record a fresh take on his 1977 hit 'The Passenger' for a Magnum ice cream advert. This is part of the launch for their new Pleasure Express range, which introduces three new flavours Euphoria, Wonder and Chill.
Magnum ice cream is partnering with global award-winner and Grammy-nominated Australian singer-songwriter and actor Troye Sivan to create three all-new remixes of his track "Honey", celebrating the launch of the brand's all-new summer flavours, Euphoria, Wonder and Chill. (SWNS)Grammy-nominated Australian singer-songwriter Troye Sivan was also present to celebrate the release of the 'Honey Remix EP', which is part of the ice cream brand's 'Wherever Pleasure Takes You' campaign.
Troye Sivan shared: "With music, it's easy to get one thing right, maybe a lyric that says how you feel, or a production that sounds like what you want, but to get everything right? ".
"That's when you can really say you've captured a mood or a feeling which is the real challenge and what we're trying to achieve with our music."
"It really comes down to making time for the chill moments of pleasure in my day to day, like spending time with my family."
"But also, I haven't been on tour for a long time, and being in front of my fans really makes me feel euphoric, so I'm really excited to be getting back out there soon."
