I've always been the sort of person who immerses myself in things, and eventually you become part of that life.

I think there's always been singers like that and i've done my fair share of cheese as well.

I love this idea of shape-shifting and changing when you put on clothes, and turn into somebody else.

A lot of youth today have become very narrow and conservative in a way, whereas we in the older generation are kind of living it.

I'd always wanted to write a song about a leather jacket and how wearing it makes you feel. I love leather jackets, and I've got a big collection of them.

I thought, I might not look my best, I've forgotten half the words to my songs and I'm suffering from post-traumatic stress, but I've just got to get out there and do it.

So often, the singer is the sound of the record. People think they can cover anything, but the whole voice is the thing that's unrepeatable.
