It's better to embrace your roots than it is to fight it, because then you're just fighting something that you're not going to win. We're like a band of gypsies, and it makes sense.

I went to college and stage school, and thought about acting, but... I just don't like actors very much! They're not as fun as musicians.

I've always been given respect because I'm kind of mannish, and I'm not a great beauty. I've never played the coquette card because I'm no good at it.

I always seem to write personal songs; that's always been my go-to thing, to write about what I'm experiencing.

Being a woman in music and having kids, it's very hard to do both without neglecting one a bit.

I might not be beautiful, but I'm very interesting!

I'm in hotel rooms night after night, playing a lot of the same venues as my dad and carrying the guitar that used to be his. We're the same person. I don't know if he realises how much of a legacy he has left to his children.
