I don't drink anymore. That's a huge - that's a massive - difference in my life. It's made a huge change in my touring.

I'm still always a country girl from New Zealand.

It's crazy in just the difference it makes turning up to sound check without a hangover.

I always make music that's reflective of the mindset I'm in at the time, and how I'm feeling.

Writing that sort of [songs like "Let is Roll"]made me try to almost sort of ingrain it in my own head every time I sing it live as well. It's like therapy. It's like "Move on, Pip! Come on. You can do this! You can do this."

I think I've got a lot of dark lines in this record [Wild Things] that I've hidden quite nicely among the nice things.

I was living in the U.K. I was back in New Zealand for the New Zealand Music Awards, which is like our annual New Zealand GRAMMYs.
