Ignore reality, there's nothing you can do about it.

The success of Torn was a bit too much for me. I took a year off and was still scared to start the second album.

Saving animals is as simple as choosing synthetic alternatives instead of real fur.

I like singer-songwriters, and I find sad songs comforting rather than depressing. It makes you realise you're not alone in the world.

When I'm in London, I love to visit Kensington gardens and just sit in the park and read a good book.

Happy songs are very difficult to write. How many truly great upbeat songs are there?

You're only as good as your last record and you could get dropped.
