I think they find it - they find me quite confusing, because - they know the music, but they don't know anything about me because I keep a very private lifestyle so they end up making up stories as such. But I don't really concern myself too much about them.

I enjoyed the two years I was with Clannad. I enjoyed touring. We toured a lot in Europe.

Fame and success are very different things.

A lot of people tend to think that because I need all this time on my own in the studio, that I need time on my own, period. And that's not really true.

I am really a very shy person. If I appear, it is because of the music, not because I want to be seen.

My core beliefs revolve around the idea that we should live to the best of our abilities-we should live and let live.

I don't need a man in my life.
