Any song I have to work on longer than a day, I just leave it. It's not gonna work. Everything that's good is really instant.

I always knew I wanted to be a musician, and I always knew I wanted to write, 'cause the people I was listening to all wrote. I never thought it was an option to sing anyone else's songs.

I wasn't intentionally trying to create my own path or be original, it was just I needed to say certain things and I needed to express myself, and that's how it came out.

If I was singing like somebody else, then it was almost like I was expressing myself like somebody else. So it was always a very original thing for me. It's my voice, it's my diary, it's the way I connect with people.

Anytime I write something that's trying to be too smart, it doesn't work.

Any song I have to work on longer than a day, I just leave it. It's not gonna work. Everything that's good is really instant.

I'm not too bothered about what category my music goes in and there's no point in limiting in who you can reach, but I want it to be respected.
