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.
emotional class people
I don't know anyone, from any class, who's had a perfectly easy life. I've met people born into wealthy families who feel like they didn't have much emotional support, and people who come from working-class families who had loads of love but no money.
believe america everyday
I use debit cards for everyday purchases, as I don't believe in credit cards. But this has caused problems, especially with American touring, because I refuse to have a credit card - and in America you can't pay for anything on a debit card.
home night men
I was once in a long relationship with a man who ran a vintage clothes store but had been a chef, so I'd come home each night to a different three-course meal. I was quite fat, but so happy.
song men get-over
I get plenty of, 'Is that song about me?' from men but I just tell them to get over themselves.
years long people
I have a lot of admiration for people who've been in relationships a long time, married for years.
thinking sparkle magpies
I like sparkles; I think I'm a magpie.
years age four
I'd say that, first and foremost, I'm a performer; I started performing when I was four years old, and being on stage from a young age set me up.
eerie want mysterious
I want my shows to be eerie and mysterious.
reality goes-on shows
I'd never go on a reality show - it's too invasive.
men violent-man violent
I'd rather be on my own than be with a violent man.
dies
I'd rather die than let somebody get the better of me.
thinking proud aristocracy
I'm proud of being British, but I think our aristocracy is overrated.
profound style stuff
I'm not a pop act, churning stuff out really quickly. I find the music that arises from that style of working is distracted, not particularly profound.
