I'm a Libra. That means that I can make a decision, but only after much thought.

Making me into a role model is placing too much importance on what I see as a work in progress.

I'm probably much more influenced by film-makers and painters than I am by other songwriters or poets.

I didn't know folk music growing up, no. It's something I've come to study, really, because I think there's so much to learn from traditional music in the sense of the way music began as a way of communication, the traveling storyteller, the bard, the minstrels.

There's so much you can do with laying words on a bed of music. You can completely change their meaning with the type of music or the way they're sung.

I've always been very visceral in that I feel things very deeply.
