For me it's about the music, and it always has been. Maybe for some other people it's more about money.
I think it really makes a difference when you know the people that you're working with, when you develop a relationship.
You know, it's possible for two humans to be in a relationship without there needing to be some public reason for that relationship.
I've always had a special relationship with the U.K. fans, because even when I wasn't working they were very supportive.
You have to be willing to give a lot to be in a relationship with me because a lot of the time it's about me.
A lot of songs are empowering because everybody who has been through a hard time in a relationship or in their lives can relate to it.
I think putting your relationship out there for people to interpret and have their own opinion about, I think it's crazy.
It's so exciting to be doing radio on the cutting edge of technology. Being in on something new is the biggest thrill in the world.
Don't get me wrong, I love my first two albums a lot.
I love hats and winter is the perfect time for them. I love winter time fashion.
I really want to work with Rufus Wainwright. Michael Stipe from R.E.M. I would love to work with Kanye West.
Sometimes it's hard to be a woman giving all your love to just one man.
I love the whole process for each new album. The writing, the touring, everything. For me, it never gets old.
I want to make music that will make the blood surge in your veins, music that will get people up and dance.
I think in the world of indie music there's this sort of false modesty.
I'm very happy that I got introduced to music only as something you got pleasure from.
Sometimes I think to talk too much about music almost cheapens it.
From the beginning, I wanted to make dance music with a human element to it.
Synthesizers were looked at as stealing the soul of music, but then there were these new bands who used it to contradict that idea.
I really like musicals - 'The Music Man,' 'Oklahoma!,' 'Li'l Abner,' 'Annie Get Your Gun.'
I always listen to a lot of different music when I am working on a project.
