I really started writing music to challenge myself, to see what I could write.

I wanted to be Snoopy's girlfriend and when I got older I wanted to be Bart Simpson's girlfriend. Then I couldn't decide whether I wanted marry Snoopy or Michael Jackson - because he was God to me - or to just be them.

I don't ever wanna drink again, I just, ooh I just need a friend

I had a real stage school voice and I could do loud things, but it's not about being loud, it's about sensitivity and subtlety in music. You can do so much more with a quiet voice than with a belter.

I write songs about stuff that I can't really get past personally - and then I write a song about it and I feel better.

I've had everything pierced at some point.

It's important for me to be with a musician or someone who has a creative mind.
