I went horseback riding and got a big chunk of horse manure kicked into my face. It has a way of slapping you right back into reality.

I don't use sex to sell records, obviously, but I'd be lying if I said that I don't feel like I have to make an effort to look good when I go out onstage, to wear something pretty.

The heart of a woman will never be found in the arms of a man.

Well, I would say that music just happens with me, I'm not in the driver's seat when I am at the piano, the piano is.

But now - look, I have to take care of myself. I work out every day. I'm a dancer. I've always been an athlete, and I'm one of those people who start to go crazy if they don't run or do something.

Plus, there were so many pianos in my house, so I couldn't really avoid it.

I was very lucky to be offered a lovely piece of property to build a career on. I started building a house on it, but it wasn't necessarily a house I would want to live in. So I ripped down that house, and I worked with these great lumberjacks to build a really cool cabin-a place I want to drink whiskey in and hang out until the sun rises.
