Do they think I'm on drugs? That I have a life-threatening illness? That I'm anorexic? Emotionally, it doesn't get easier to hear those criticisms - but it gets easier to be resolute about my reaction to it.

I used to love to make things - you couldn't drag me away for dinner because I was always writing a story or something.

Love is a hell you cannot bear.

I know what my job is: I write the songs, I sing them, I play them on the piano

Hearing my songs in public freaks me out a bit. There was one restaurant I really liked in L.A., but I had to stop going there when they started playing my music. It felt kinda awkward.

Sometimes interviews are fun and good conversations, but stuff like photo shoots and appearances at places where you have to meet a lot of people - I was never really made for this kind of stuff.

Nobody is strong enough to not be influenced.
