I was 19 when I recorded my first album, and I've been exposed to many things during these last few years; all the baby fat is gone.

I want to get my music out there. I enjoy playing shows; I just don't enjoy airports. I want to be more creative, but it's hard to get into that zone on tour.

I'm a really restless person; I'm tired of the way I sounded or looked yesterday. So it's hard to hang onto this image of me as this young Swedish female in this world.

I think I've been a bit misunderstood; the first record was more timid than I wanted it to be. I don't like getting pinned down by sex or how I sound like because it's not who I am or what I want to be.

I was inspired by [Michelangelo] Antonioni's Red Desert - very big and moody.

I do it live on tape with a band. It's not like I'm doing electronic music with a laptop.

If you're being ignored, that's a good time to concentrate on finding yourself and creating your own mystery.
