For me 'You & I Forever' is celebrating the person you love being by your side. This is what it means to others

I had just finished a run of shows in the States and went to NY to work with BenZel for a couple weeks, mainly as a different focus to touring. I didn't have any expectations or pressures with what would come out of those two weeks, and think 'Tough Love' sums this up. It was me experimenting with my voice and having fun with it. It just felt right and kind of dictated the route of the next album, much like 'Devotion' did on my first album

Ice cream is my comfort food.

I can't eat before I go onstage because I've learnt that burping on stage isn't a good thing. It's all about acid reflux.

I'm not a complicated person.

I started meeting the right people, like [producer] Dave [Okumu], who explained to me how songwriting is really simple - "just like shitting," he said. "You gotta let it all out." When he put it like that, however disgusting it is, it made a lot of sense to me.

If I make a song where I'm happy, I sound completely mad - I think my voice is better-suited for sadder songs.
