I was always an unusual girl. My mother told me I had a chameleon soul, no moral compass pointing due north, no fixed personality; just an inner indecisiveness that was as wide and as wavering as the ocean.

New York's architecture alone is enough to inspire a whole album. In fact, that's what happened at first - my early stuff was mostly just interpretations of landscapes.

In New York I pretty much live in diners - I order French Fries, Diet Coke floats and lots of coffee.

I'm the gangsta Nancy Sinatra.

You do things so fast, you end up having so many different lifestyles all in one short time.

I listen to a little Marina & The Diamonds. She has a song called 'Teen Idle' that I really like.

Nothing I ever wrote had a message. It was just my own personal experience.
