I've always written songs the same way. You learn different tricks - you learn craft, you learn structure, all that - as you go.

You made a rebel of a careless man's careful daughter. You are the best thing that's ever been mine.

When I'm in my 50s, I kind of think I'll want to be in a garden.

I've had a few semi-toxic relationships, but it's not what I look for when I'm seeing someone.

It was a time of great loneliness. He had a group of friends, and suddenly I had no one and did not understand why. I felt excluded. Some days, the majority was in high school and did not know who to talk to. And that is something really terrible when you're twelve years old.

Fans are my favorite thing in the world. I've never been the type of artist who has that line drawn between their friends and their fans. The line's always been really blurred for me. I'll hang out with them after the show. I'll hang out with them before the show. If I see them in the mall, I'll stand there and talk to them for 10 minutes.

Just keep doing 'you', and being who you are and doing what feels natural to you.
