My goal in life has been to be a songsmith, not a pop person.

As much as I love music, in my mind, photography is what makes me the happiest - that's for sure.

I find it upsetting to see the erosion of manners. It's very scary. Where are the 'pleases' and 'thank yous?'

On the one hand, I've had such a normal upbringing with my mum, who has kept me grounded, but on the other, the wild experiences through my dad.

I had always thought of starting my own record company. I haven't regretted the decision - yet!

Anyone must remember that dad left when I was 3 years old. Mom and I lived out of the limelight. We lived a totally different life.

I love to sit on a mountain top and gaze. I don't think of anything but the people I care about and the view.
