Things aren't always as they appear. I've been believing things to be a certain way because I want them to be that way. I build up illusions in my head.

Everyone wants to know what kind of music their favorite artist listens to. It feels good to. I don't try to dwell on that too much though.

I love being creative, and for me it doesn't matter what it is - whether it's art or music or just daydreaming.

I'm a very typical yoga-practicing musician; I do it when I can. I'm not hardcore about it. A lot of my lyrics talk about celebrating life and working through pain. I think that's what yoga's about, getting rid of, moving energy and letting it flow through you.

It's usually kids that normally don't have a chance to get to meet each other because they're separated by millions of different things.

I sing the best when I'm really in my voice. It's kind of like I'm meditating but I sort of imagine my voice as a physical thing. I see colours, I feel it moving out of me and I try to tap into images that I was tapping into when I was writing the song.

Every song is completely different. Sometimes they come like a lump of clay and it's your job to chip away and find out what's in the center. Sometimes it comes like swimming fish, and you have to follow it and see where it leads. Sometimes it comes totally fragmented.
