There's huge amounts of nonsense that goes with everything surrounding music and art. All the things you have to do promote yourself - there's huge amounts of nonsense.

I don't need to sell tons of records, but I want longevity. I want to make music for the rest of my life.

I sound awful saying it but I think it can be like that. I see a lot of people in unstimulating relationships. And not just boyfriend-girlfriend relationships. They find themselves in stagnant friendships. If people were a little less scared [of ending things] they'd get more out of life… You meet the right person at the right time and they fulfil a certain something in your life. You fulfil something in theirs. But there's a time limit to that. Unless you choose to be bloody good company for the rest of your life, do you know what I mean?

It’s hard to accept yourself as someone you don’t desire / As someone you don’t want to be.

I like living in the city, but I like being able to get out of it as and when I like.

I feel sometimes that I'm in a constant state of being lost in translation, and I guess that why I write songs.
