I'm very honest in my music and I'm often asked to explain the lyrics; as an introvert, I find that quite hard. And I always wear high heels on stage, which can be painful.

I liked English and art and did a lot of painting. And for some reason I was good at math, but I wasn't an A student. I really had to work hard to get good grades.

I got a job as soon as I could - 11 or 12. I started babysitting and then I got a part-time job at a pharmacy in England. I just remember loving the feeling of going out and buying my own clothes! I'd go bargain-hunting and get secondhand vintage stuff.

The pen is in your hands, the rest is still unwritten.

Live your life with arms wide open. Today is where your book begins. The rest is still unwritten.

My skin is like a map of where my heart has been And I can't hide the marks It's not a negative thing.

I would love to do something with Coldplay.
