I decide immediately if I like a person and if I do, then I'm myself, and if I don't, then I give nothing.

I'm a very private person, so obviously I don't enjoy talking about more personal matters.

With songs I almost see the images, see the action, and then all I have to do is describe it. It's almost like watching a scene from a film, and that's what I go about trying to catch in a song.

There is nothing more boring than doing singing exercises.

I work on words quite separately to music. They're both ongoing, and I don't ever feel like I'm working in a cycle in that respect, because it's every day anyway, no matter what I'm doing. Then I get to a point when I've collected together enough words that seem like they want to be songs rather than poems, or sometimes not.

I did photography, painting, and drawing, but I prefer sculpture. I like it because it's very physical.
