I came out of the closet very young, and I had to cut my teeth pretty fast.

I believe a lot of our lives are spent asleep, and what I've been trying to do is hold on to those moments when a little spark cuts through the fog and nudges you.

I've always gravitated towards opera, and the Royal Opera House is quite possibly the greatest opera house on earth.

I don't know if it will be my big comeback, but I think it is a statement - that I am a self-sustaining, vibrant, long-term artist, and I'm not going away! And if you don't give me credit, then the musical gods will!

To me, songs come of their own volition - and with an open-ended philosophy.

I am undefinable. I don't fit into any particular category.

I have this horrible, horrible habit of going on YouTube and checking out comments about what I do.
