‘I’d rather not have this album coming out right now with Adele and, who else is coming out? Sting,’ Rod began.
‘Everybody’s got an album coming out now. So I wanted my eighth number one album, so I wanted it to come out in the summer.
‘I don’t care about how many copies it sells. I just like that number one. People remember number ones,’ he continued.
Adele and Sting both released their latest albums on November 19 – Adele’s 30 and Sting’s The Bridge.
