People in Sweden are very conscious of what people are saying about you.

I have a hard time writing music when I'm on tour.

I've always had a fascination with making your own music but never have been skilled enough to play the instrument, so to be able to make music without the ability was awesome.

There's always haters, no matter what you're doing - whether they're complaining that everything you do sounds the same, or it's too different.

I have always been mainstream. It's so weird, because I don't see it as something negative at all. So many people see it as something negative.

I always used to travel without a passport case, and because of it I think I'm four passports in. I bought this small Tumi case to protect my new one, and it works really well, not just for protecting it but also for keeping credit cards and small stuff. I just throw it in my bag when I'm traveling, as opposed to stuffed in my pocket.

I'm good at melody - I'll write the top-line melody and ideal words I want to go with it. But I'm not that good at writing lyrics. I bounce those back and forth with songwriters or someone who can sing.
