I'd love to say that I could write political songs, but I don't feel clued-up enough.

I'm not a downtrodden woman. I just won't be.

There are lots of beautiful areas in England, and I am lucky enough to live in a stunning part of a very beautiful area.

I was once in a long relationship with a man who ran a vintage clothes store but had been a chef, so I'd come home each night to a different three-course meal. I was quite fat, but so happy.

I'm under no illusion that there are things about me that I'd like to change. I just accept who I am, and I'm proud of it.

I travel regularly and have learnt to be very methodical as far as packing is concerned. For example, I always check the weather in advance of where I'm going to ensure that I've packed the right clothes.

I think I'd be a million times more successful and more iconic if I was a singer in the 40s. I'd be allowed a level of mystery and I think I'd suit that decade.
