My family is very musical, I was surrounded by it. And from four years old I was the one that asked my mother could I take piano lessons... It wasn't forced on me. It was something I wanted to do. And ever since, I've never stopped, I've never stopped playing music. I never went through a period where I didn't want to do it.

London is a good fashion city. They're a little more daring. There's the element of the aristocracy, which is always interesting.

I played classical as a kid.

There's a lot of hurry up and wait. But it gives you time to write a song.

I think writers are prone to hyperbole sometimes.

I was always the front man for what I was doing from when I was 6.

I just want my music to measure up to. Part of it's just thinking about my place in history and how this music is going to be perceived, if it's listened to 30, 40 years from now.
