I've got a song called 'Salt Skin' because when you run in the heat it evaporates and you've got salt crystals on your face. I love that, because it means you've worked really hard.
There are plenty of bands who never get in the charts and it doesn't mean that they're not any good. Actually, a lot of the top ten is filled with stuff that just sounds the same. I could guess what's in there now - probably a bit of GaGa, Beyonce and some U.S. R&B males.
I instinctively dress a bit tougher because I've spent a lot of time in the U.S. and I realised there was a certain image projected of me here. I've always been an absolute rebel. When I was in my teen years I had piercings and wore all black.
I can fall in love in a simple way, but I can dissect it in such an intense fashion when it ends.
Even when I'm in quite a happy state of mind, I like writing really sad songs. I think a lot of people do.
Bjork, I'd love to do something with her. I'd love to do some sort of crazy orchestral choir thing with her.
