Breaking up is just hard, even if you're the one breaking up. It's not fun. It can be dramatic and complicated. And then you get a little distance and you think, why did it have to be so complicated and dramatic?

I wasn't very aware of pop music because I attended an arts school. For me, it was all about jazz.

I think playing music is one of my great joys in life.

You would never catch me in a miniskirt.

I like records that flow really well and you don't have to skip around because there's lot of different jumps.

It's funny how you realize what's important, and it's not fame and money, even though it can be really nice. It's happiness and whatever it takes to make you feel happy.

I always try to do something different. I don't think I've made the same record over and over.
