If you're being ignored, that's a good time to concentrate on finding yourself and creating your own mystery.
I knew I wanted to be an artist, but I never took music lessons. I was just playing around in front of the mirror and being silly, then suddenly I started making songs.
I think pop culture underestimates people. The message is, 'Being yourself is the worst thing you could possibly be.' But people are still attracted to it.
I am deeply in tune with my heart and core, and it's made me a better writer, artist, and most of all woman. It's made me more myself.
My favourite festival experience is a show at midnight with the moon blazing and a crowd full of open hearts ready to dance.
I don't want to break someone's heart, but you can't control that. A broken heart happens; that's inevitable.
I don't necessarily love all the collaborations that I've done; the more I work with other people, the more I realize that I want to work with myself.
I love listening to demos. They're so raw.
I remember watching films in my teenage years, and you'd be in love with Leonardo DiCaprio, and then a song would come on. You'd love that song forever; it changed your life.
I went to 11 different schools. It was a fantastic adventure, but I was incredibly sensitive and needed a bit more stability.
I'm interested in a lot of different sounds and types of music.
I felt such a deep connection with dolphins. I felt like they were the only ones who understood me.
The profession I have keeps dragging me into drama and taking me away from baking, flowering and gardening.
It's in every person's life, around 27 to 29 years old, the stars and the planets align themselves to exactly the way they were when you were born. You're faced with yourself. There's no running away.
I honestly kind of hate shopping. My favorite places to shop are rich old lady consignment stores.
The first tape I got was Madonna's 'Immaculate Collection.' I'm inspired by the way she started from nothing and didn't have a big musical talent, but had a big dream.
I was totally romanticizing the idea of Los Angeles when the Doors, Joni Mitchell, and Neil Young were hanging out there.
I'm more old school: I want to be like Keith Richards on stage. It's not interesting to see straight-from-runway clothes slapped on an artist. It's more interesting when you see people who have their own style.
I struggle with myself every day - I am a lonesome person. I talk to my family - and I connect to some people deeply along the way - but I am a restless soul. Singing is the most immediate relief.
I do everything: I'll have a green juice, then a melted chocolate ice cream. I stay up very late, I get up very early.
