I maintain that when I finally retire from my career in music, I will go and live back in Wales - when I am an old person, if I live to be an old person. The water I miss, and the air, there's something different about it. And I miss the simple life.

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

I'd hate it to become style over substance, I'd hate people to start putting me in a magazine article about my style. I don't like dressing up in something I'm not necessarily comfortable in just to make it more of a show. I want the power to come from what I sing about and how I sing.

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

I feel quite proud to be an ambassador for women who realize that being fit is better than being skinny.

I was the first person to go to university from my family.

I believe in the moment of things and fate and things happening for a reason, so I write things down and I trust it.
