I guess what people forget sometimes is that when I write songs, I write them sometimes in about 20 minutes.

They're different kinds of challenges depending upon what phase of life I'm in.

I'm quite obsessed with the idea of nailing the girl friendship. It's such an art, so delicate.

I see my body as an instrument, rather than an ornament.

Breakups are a horrible thing for almost everybody I know. For someone who is a love addict, it's debilitating.

I could get away with not taking care of myself as a bachelorette but as a mom I can't.

I'm excited about there being more of a sisterhood these days. Back in the '90s there was a lot of hate - the women I looked up to as artists were dissing me! It's not so patriarchal these days - there's more love and a lot less hate!
