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 guess in order to say something to one person, I have to sing it to a couple of thousand. It doesn't make for healthy relationships.

I feel a responsibility to the fans who have paid to see me and I want to give as good a show as I possibly can.

Well, I'm completely normal and mellow.

Love is horrible. I mean, when you're in love, it's like a sickness. Such madness.

I've got quite a vivid imagination and I'm easily overwhelmed by sensations and things that are beautiful or scary. I don't think I've ever seen a ghost - I think I'm probably haunted by my own ghosts than real ones.

Music to me is so internal. It's physical and it's emotional. Whereas fashion is so much about the external that it's almost like a break. It's not inner turmoil. It's total escapism.
