When you're a kid and you go to Disneyland or Disneyworld and you're so pumped and then you go when you're grown up and it's not as much fun as you remember it.

Everyone who wears glasses (onstage) eventually takes them off. It becomes part of the evolution. It was actually kind of a battle for me to keep my glasses.

I had serious performance stage fright. I kept my singing to the confines of my shower and car, while doing the dishes, and in my basement, but I would burst out crying if anyone asked me to sing.

I'm inspired by almost every artist I come across.

You can't just mess with somebody's prescription, and I really like wearing glasses. It's my eyesight and I don't want to mess with that.

I don't think of myself as "a lesbian musician." It's not one and alone. I think of myself as a musician.

The way I work with music is that I take on the story.
