I think the lesson that I learnt very early on was to listen to people you work with, because you're all in it together.

Even if I know that really it's not a great song, even if it's a naff song but I have a good memory of it, then to me that's a great song.

Give me one good reason why I should never make a change, baby if you hold me then all of this will go away.

It's strange to think that I can go places and people want to hear my music. I guess that's all I ever wanted.

When I went travelling around Europe there was the Eurovision song contest on, and I got a bit dunk and we missed our train to Budapest the next day. Anyway, when I got back I kind of realised how many songs there were about people giving up things for somebody, so I thought I'd make a song about giving up things I don't have. These elaborate things that I don't have that I could give up to somebody, and I kind of thought there was kind of some sweet sentiment in that.

When I'm playing guitar, I just try and put those words into lyrics and just try a few things. It's all over the place.

Obviously I still gig on my own, but I've always heard my music with a band.
