A lot of what has pushed me forward is desire, and I have expressed that in my songwriting - perhaps because it's safer!

The more personal you make something, the more universal it becomes, because essentially we're all made up of the same emotional stuff.

I want to be a better person. I want to be a stronger person. I want to be someone who hurts less.

I'd like to be more of a bad influence than a role model. I'm getting lots of boys to wear eye-liner again which is good.

When every day became a hangover and when you look at yourself in the mirror and go 'I don't like how you're coming across to people.' and when every day just started to feel the same. After the 50th shag, it doesn't mean so much anymore.

I think the scariest addiction on this planet is to alcohol. Because alcohol is a very addictive drug, and it ruins families, it ruins relationships. And it is socially acceptable, and it is easy to find. Controlled substances, other drugs are more difficult to get, and it's a crime to... to buy them. But alcohol is everywhere. And if you are unfortunate enough to become addicted to it, it can be disastrous. And there is still a stigma attached to alcohol addiction, or addiction in general. It is perceived as... an addict is perceived as somebody of weak moral fiber

Everybody is trying to be so trendy. I think not being trendy should be the next trend.
