No one starts playing my kind of music to make a fortune. But I do want to keep doing what I do and I do want to continue selling records. And I would, eventually, quite like some money.

I know how ridiculous this sounds because of the job I do but I don't believe in romanticism and make-believe.

I think your most intimate thoughts are only honest when they're in your head.

I'm a bit of a magpie: whatever I see or hear or read feeds into the songs.

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

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

Lover please do not fall to your knees it's not like I believe in everlasting love
