Maneater -- make you work hard, make you spend hard, make you want all of her love.

Any time you turn off and let someone else make any artistic decision for you, you make a mistake.

Art and life go together. I have to have a life filled with experiences to make art, and I have to have art around me to live well.

I'm not into branding - I'm trying to be organic to who I am on every level. I do really connect to being a part of the working class. Those are my roots. My family [consists of] farmers from Portugal, builders, housekeepers and stonemasons.

I'm having a lot more fun living life. My new motto is "plerking" - I play and work at the same time.

Music is one of the only inanimate things we have left. It can still be mystical, magical and awe-inspiring

I say it's a girls' world.
