I do see myself settling down, getting married and having kids. But when I think about a family life in the future there's rarely a man involved which is kind of weird.

I love to live and I live to love.

I've always written poetry but I didn't realise it was a therapy for me until I was maybe 15. That's when my singing started to come together as well because I was listening to so much jazz. What I love I will always embrace.

I'm my own worst critic, and if I don't pull off what I think I wanted to do in my head, then I won't be a happy girl.

Music is the only thing that will give and give and give and not take.

My justification is that most people my age spend a lot of time thinking about what they're going to do for the next five or ten years. The time they spend thinking about their life, I just spend drinking.

I don't listen to a lot of new stuff. I just like the old stuff. It's all quite dramatic and atmospheric. You'd have an entire story in song. I never listen to, like, white music - I couldn't sing you a Zeppelin or Floyd song.
