I wanted to put out a solo record because I was stuck on a major label and sick of it.

I have a lot of very close girlfriends and sisters - I'm from an all female family. My father often quips that even the cat was neutered!

If Jennifer Lopez could write songs like Fiona Apple's, she wouldn't have to spend so many hours at the gym.

The truth is, I've always been wracked with self-loathing and terrible, paralysing depression.

Starbucks is my main fix and it's usually you people working in there - sometimes they're actually shaking. It just makes me feel horrendous because I've been in that situation.

Mozart was a punk, which people seem to forget. He was a naughty, naughty boy.

I am greedy, and most importantly, game for what's next.
