I hope in telling honestly I can in some way help other people to do so also.

I liked getting a mirror and walking around with it facing the sky. I’d imagine I was walking in the tops of the trees and falling into the sky, or walking up the stairs whilst going down.

I don’t like the idea of songwriting being therapy. I don’t want to put myself so directly in the foreground.

I’ve been known to be called trouble, which I think is quite a compliment. But I suppose, thinking about it, that my best and worst trouble has always had something to do with a man.
