I'm absolutely obsessed with The Jesus And Mary Chain and Patti Smith, but I'm a massive pop fan. I love pop culture, It's a total reflection of the zeitgeist.

I absolutely hate Take That, East 17, the Spice Girls.

Pop music allows you to be who you are without having to wear a social uniform or to conform, which some people find impossible to do.

Life is a process of working out what's not working for you and disentangling yourself from it and trying then not walk into the same thing again. Watching your patterns and correcting them if you can.

When do you know you're insane? And when do you known you're sane? I think I treat a fine line between the two. It's a battle to function, but somehow I manage.

If you're a musician and an artist, you don't just stop.

I'm a hopeless mother; a hopeless wife; I have to try harder. I'm just a pathetic case history, really.
