freedom music
The freedom you feel when you're actually in control of your own music is fantastic.
bad music people
The music industry is in such poor shape; it's in a really bad way, and a lot of people in the industry are very depressed.
exist hand people track
I understand that people want to just listen to a track and put it on their iPod, and that's fine, there's nothing wrong with that, but why can't that exist hand in hand with an album? They're such different experiences.
people weirdo
I suppose I do think I go out of my way to be a very normal person, and I just find it frustrating that people think that I'm some kind of weirdo reclusive that never comes out into the world.
family
I was aware of a lot of my friends being into things I wasn't into. Like sarcasm. It had never been a part of my family - they still don't use sarcasm.
aware female media people promoted prove wrote
People weren't even aware that I wrote my own songs. The media just promoted me as a female body. It's like I've had to prove that I'm an artist.
I am just a quiet reclusive person who has managed to hang around for a while.
geeky life
I think we all feel geeky at times, don't we? Isn't that all a part of the wonderful tapestry of life?
bad programmes
I used to enjoy bad television, like really bad quiz programmes or sitcoms.
beginning best gave giving keen quite realised saw school serious singing stubborn
My parents weren't keen on the giving up of school at the beginning to go into singing and dancing, but once they saw I was serious about it, they gave support. I was quite stubborn about my decision, and in the end, they realised it was for the best.
love
I love being with my friends, relaxing and talking.
cat coffee following freaked looking people start trapped turn
Sometimes when I'm going to the supermarket to get the coffee and cat litter, I get freaked out and see all these people staring, and you turn around and there's, like, 40 people all looking at you... and when you go around the corner, they're all following you! You start freaking out like a trapped animal.
cope learnt school
School was a very cruel environment, and I was a loner. But I learnt to get hurt, and I learnt to cope with it.
incredibly isolated life people sort touring
Touring is an incredibly isolated situation. I don't know how people tour for years on end. You find a lot of people who can't stop touring, and it's because they don't know how to come back into life. It's sort of unreal.
