I think Canadians make a lot of music because we're stuck inside all the time.

It takes me probably about four hours to get into the groove [with making music]. And it's really important for me to not break the groove.

Success, for me, is a song that can deliver shivers.

The groove can go for like three days - once I'm in it it will just keep going until I'm totally exhausted. But that's how I like to work, I like to be away from everyone and just get in the zone, and stay there for as long as I can keep it there.

I don't own anything designer.

I cry really easily. If I see a butterfly, I'll practically burst into tears. So it's really hard for me to yell at people, because I'll feel so guilty about it. But if I don't, then they don't take me seriously and it's this endless cycle.

Sometimes you find people who are magnetic, but once they get in front of a camera, they freak out and get weird.
