It's a very organic process, and it has a specific order to it. I love to write, and once you've written, then you arrange. After the arrangement, you record it, and then you tour it.

I am not in love / But I'm open to persuasion.

So if you're on tour for eight months, a year... or whatever it is you definitely don't want arguments and I'm happy to say that I've always had a really nice bunch of people around me all the time.

Writing is all about self-editing; it's all about being present being aware of what's happening

You don't have to be rich and famous. You just have to be an ordinary person, doing extraordinary things. I'd like more people to know that it's there. Women's achievements still aren't recognised enough in many areas.

My mother bought a piano, put it in the front room, and I just started writing my songs.

I am constantly being told that I have been a big influence for many people, including other musicians.
