“Money to Burn” is a fantasy. I mean, I would love for that to be a true story. Most of my songs are written in metaphors.

It's amazing. Being clearheaded for a show, for starters. Not being reflux-y because of the amount of beer you've drunk.

I am a fan of the true crime and horror genres! So, I've got a dark side too.

I'm still always a country girl from New Zealand.

You can't always be like 'sunshine and roses'. I like a little bit of darkness.

It's crazy in just the difference it makes turning up to sound check without a hangover.

I have these thoughts. I think "What if the show doesn't sell well? What if it's a half-empty room?" These are the paranoia thoughts that go through my head on a day-by-day basis.

I don't drink anymore. That's a huge - that's a massive - difference in my life. It's made a huge change in my touring.

When I say “when you’re always almost lonely, you forget to take it slowly,” I mean that you don’t always take care of yourself.

With the first record (2008’s Ladyhawke) I was quite naive, but very excited and happy.

I think I've got a lot of dark lines in this record [Wild Things] that I've hidden quite nicely among the nice things.

If only I had wings, I would not hesitate to fly away from my mistakes.

A proud man is seldom a grateful man, for he never thinks he gets as much as he deserves.

The main objection to killing people as a punishment...is that killing people is wrong

Only one form of contagion travels faster than a virus. And that's fear.

I challenge myself to take at least one fashion risk a day, otherwise I get stuck.

I will spark a generation of thinkers who will question traditional thought until they find the absolute truth.

Communications is at the heart of e-commerce and community.

How can there be too many children? That is like saying there are too many flowers.

Every bird will follow it's specie.

I've tried wearing more than one ring on one hand and it doesn't look good. It's overkill, I think. So I think a ring on either hand. Nine times out of ten I'll go for pinky rings, but not always.
