I feel increasingly like age is very irrelevant. Quite often, cynicism is confused with wisdom, and my scorn is confused with a knowing, which I don't have.

I'm incredibly neurotic and a control freak. I like the thought that if there's going to be anyone to blame it's going to be me.

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

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

When a song wants to be written, it will be written.

I thought ‘I wonder what will happen if I try and root myself somewhere?‘ Look back over the past eight years.

I would never sit and write a song in front of anyone, because you're so vulnerable. I don't know at what point in the process that it becomes acceptable to pass them on. When a song wants to be written, it will be written. When it does come, I will very rarely go back and edit lyrics. I'm quite a rational human being, and the only part of my life that I can't rationalise, or can't make sense of, is how a song gets written or why.
