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.

My reaction to everything in life is when it gets a bit complicated to water it down and make it simple again.

I am quite competitive. In stupid things like card games.

I feel like I'm creeping closer to finding the situation that triggers songwriting, which is obviously an extreme of an emotion.

The romanticised life, where all the great poetry and music and art of the world comes from, is great but it requires a lot of self-indulgence.

I'm a lot more observational than personal in my writing. My writing is mostly a lot of questions without answers.

People think I look odd onstage. But the way I deal with being incredibly nervous is by concentrating really hard.
