I was on some TV shows with Lady Gaga the other week, and you could see the difference in reaction between her fans and my fans outside. She comes out, and she looks like a star, and the reaction is just tears, crying, people going, 'Oh my God, Oh my God.' My fans are like: 'Alright, Ed.'

The more you write tunes, the better they will become. The more you do gigs, the better you will become.

I kind of like the way that I came up as an artist. I like experimenting.

I think that this win [Grammy] in particular was a cool moment for me and the director [Emil Nava], because it was the first award he's ever won.

For me, Spotify is not even a necessary evil. It helps me do what I want to do.

I'm quite arty. I didn't know whether to become an artist or musician but I realised I could paint with music. All my songs have colours.

I think YouTube has destroyed the genre barrier. People can be into Justin Bieber and Eminem at the same time. It's a good thing.
