I've been accustomed to being famous and having a certain level of attention for 14 years, but in the last few months, it's changed. It's like on the arcade game, I've gone up to the next level.

I'm trying to be myself more and more. The more confidence you have in yourself... the more you realize that this is you, and life isn't long. So get on with it!

Life is about love and experience and learning and evolving and I am richer and thankful for all of the experiences in my life.

What I normally do with recording, performing, and touring is my name. It's all on my shoulders. If it's a great show, I'm great. If it's not a great show, I'm not great.

I did very much enjoy being part of an independent film. It was just the energy.

I have had a holiday, and I'd like to take it up professionally.

I wrote lyrics that were intensely personal to me a few years ago. Maybe people know me better now.
