years paper accents
It's not a deliberate thing. It's not like I was rejecting the UK, which is what the papers said. It's just that when you spend a lot of time in your formative years around an accent, you're going to pick it up. I had been living in LA for a bit and that's what happened.
fighting littles way
My family fight, that's the way it is. We're not common as muck or anything but we do have a little fight now and then.
white people wish
People say I'm the white Aretha Franklin. I wish I was her.

I wanted out of my record deal with EMI. They wanted me to record one type of album; I wanted to record the type of music I wanted to make.
want firsts records
When you get your first record deal, you will do anything, because you just want to sing.

If you give yourself too much time, you kind of over-obsess about the music. It's not supposed to be like that.
people difficult okay
People grow. It's okay to grow. Some people find that difficult to grasp.
growing-up grows hard
I've had to grow up with everyone watching me, which has been hard.

The recession is everywhere. We need to be heard. Wouldn't it be great if there could be more referendums so we could have regular voting on specific points?

I just wear what I think looks nice.
clothes pay fortune
I never pay a fortune for clothes.
albums week made
I made my new album 'Colour Me Free!' in a week with my own money.
real dip different
I like to dip in and out of all sorts of different things. God, if I was asked to be in a show, like a real show, I would be so up for doing that.
years biggie care
I guess this year I'm going to find out if I'm good enough or not. If I'm not, I don't care. I'll do something else, it's not a biggie.
