I'd call what I do pop music, but it's folky and electronic and it doesn't really sound like much else.

Even when I'm in quite a happy state of mind, I like writing really sad songs. I think a lot of people do.

You should constantly write because your writing is always evolving and progressing. It's really important to start writing young.

I guess I'm just quite observant and I pay attention to a lot of things. Human behavior really fascinates me.

The very first song I wrote was about a boy that I was obsessed with.

The only really safe thing to do is to write a diary of where you've been, what time you went to bed, what you ate. If I wrote honestly about everything I think it'd be a disaster. It would cause a lot of trouble.

It's usually a big kind of vent of frustration or anger or sadness that puts me in the right frame of mind to write. It's such a cliche to say that artists write when they're down, but it's true for me. It's a relief to get out what's eating away at my heart or my soul or my head.
