All my songs come from me because I only seem able to write about myself and my experiences.

I get up, go and get a coffee, and go do the crossword - I'm loyal to one particular paper, the 'Guardian' - and that's my idea of a perfect morning.

I speak because I can to anyone I trust enough to listen.

I'm the first to admit that I'm still pretty young.

I'm reluctantly interested in love and helplessly interested in logic and yet they're so conflicting. And they're both necessary for a happy balance, a happy existence... I think.

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

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