I never expected to get the Tom Jones treatment and it amazes me that I do. Strangely it's women who throw their underwear at me when I'm performing live. My male fans tend to be quite shy. My female fans are wild. I never know what to do with all the lingerie that lands at my feet. Maybe I should open a shop.

It took time to really build myself a reputation as a good live performer, a musician and an artist.

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

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