sleep kids want
I've spent a lot of time being bohemian and sleeping on floors, but eventually I want to have kids and I want to bring them up in a secure environment.
looks emotion hindsight
I stay true to my lyrics. If I go back and look at them in hindsight, the emotions I had when I wrote them have passed. It feels unjustified to change them.
married
Whatever you are, you have the right to get married.
running hate rain
I go running three times a week - outside in the park, come rain or shine, and I hate every moment of it. I hate everything about it. But I know it's important for health reasons and the reason why I run, in particular, is because my stage work is like cardiovascular work so I don't want to lose my breath on stage.
magic littles film
Working with Terry Gilliam was magic - I've been watching his films since I was little.
queens men thinking
A lot of men do have a fear of my ultra-femininity. Sometimes people say I look like a drag queen, that I look scary, but I think that's a fear of my confidence. Most women in contemporary culture pare down their femininity, so there's a slight androgyny about them, and I think men have got used to seeing that.
three generations sometimes
When I do my shows, it's really cross-generational. Sometimes there's three generations there.
bored desire cosmetics
My desire to experiment comes from my attention-deficit approach to cosmetics. I just get really bored, really easily.
clothes style dresses
I've got so many clothes; I can dress in any style.
watches affected
I'm very affected by what I watch and read.
school thinking next-day
Ever since I was little, my mum used to choose an outfit for me and lay it on the bed so I'd know what I was wearing the next day. I never went to a uniformed school, so I always had an outfit - and I never really grew out of that, I don't think.
beautiful england lucky
There are lots of beautiful areas in England, and I am lucky enough to live in a stunning part of a very beautiful area.
eccentric culture british
It's celebrated in British culture to be eccentric.
art school ideas
I design all my sets. With my tour and my album artwork, I co-design that with people who are better at drawing than me. But I've got a good imagination. I went to art school so I understand how to communicate my ideas.
