I tasted huge success with my first album, and when it's happening it feels like a roller coaster you can't get off. You should be very careful about wishing for success on that scale.

Some people are really good at packaging themselves, but that's not really me.

Yeah, I'm not really a morning person.

I'm a sucker for sad disco pop.

A lot of what inspired many musicians is celebrating differences, and people relate to that - more people feel like the unpopular, freaky one than the one in the in-crowd.

It is easier to speak about revival than to set about it.

O freedom, first delight of human kind!

Weep no more, nor sigh, nor groan, Sorrow calls no time that 's gone; Violets plucked, the sweetest rain Makes not fresh nor grow again.
