The stage is a place where I can be wholly myself. Even though you're in front of people almost to be judged, it is a place without judgement.

Hands up if you’re ready to do something you’ll regret this weekend. Go forth! You have my blessing.

I think I should get a bigger between-the-song persona, so then I'm not wandering around the stage like some mad old auntie that's saying hello to people and falling over.

When I'm singing I'm always trying to get to the highest point possible. I'd fly to the top of Buckingham Palace to sing to the queen.

I like a house party and fancy dress, a big fan of fancy dress, like dress up, costume parties.

I try to maintain a healthy dose of daydreaming, to remain sane.

Having a soul, they say, is like taking sadness and turning it into something beautiful.

If you do something with your whole heart and it's a mistake, you can live with that.

I like the idea of not being afraid of letting your imagination rule you, to feel the freedom of expression, to let creativity be your overwhelming drive rather than other things.

Sometimes I find that music is so much more attractive than love. I don’t know… It’s like some kind of euphoria, that love can’t bring to you.

You should have high expectations for yourself and others should come second.

My dream is to keep dreaming!

In my mind's eye

When I am anxious it is because I am living in the future. When I am depressed it is because I am living in the past.

Never worry about the facts. Just project an image to the public.

How strange women are.

I'd like to start a religion. That's where the money is.

And let us remember too that life, in its exuberance, always succeeds in overflowing the narrow limits within which man thinks he can confine it.

There is a very fine line between love and nausea.

Anything you undertake will be possible to accomplish.

Accursed who brings to light of day the writings I have cast away.
