It was a complete dream to work with David LaChapelle. I collected his books as a teenager, and I fantasised that he would direct the video for 'Spectrum' from the moment the song was written. I still can't believe it actually happened, 
and I'm completely overjoyed that he felt such a connection with the song.

Touring, and being in a band, it's almost like the other stuff, the other parts of life, get put on hold.

The stage is the place I feel comfortable - it's almost as if real life is where I feel most nervous. Conversations are a lot more nerve-wracking.

My room is like an antique shop, full of junk, and weird stuff. There's a big sword in there. And a taxidermy bird, and a couple of birdcages. And a lot of newspaper cuttings. I used to have a weird thing about cutting out morbid headlines from newspapers, and collecting them. I was fascinated with drowning, which is kind of strange.

I want people to get hit and caught by my music.

I started off singing in church as a child. The sound of voices coming together, that was my first moment of touching something outside of myself.

I think I've always looked older than I am. I hope that's going to work in my favor when I get older.
