I had a breakthrough, I think my life just became calmer, I gave up drinking. My priorities changed as I had a young daughter. The group didn't want me to record for the Think Tank album... so I took it as a sign to leave.

Most of America don't even listen to music probably. They just go raccoon hunting or something.

Being a singer now I have to get all fussy... I must have my ginger and lemon and all that.

I think it's better if blokes can admit that they can have crushes on other blokes. I've probably had crushes but never really sexual crushes on men.

I think of someone like Mariah Carey as a singer.

I liked Germany; I'm not into Berlin, it's too huge and empty and imposing, but Munich was good.

Like, Mission Of Burma to me always sounded almost like they were part of the British Arty New Wave. I kind of like that. I like not being able to tell the difference.
