“I really love being in 'Game of Thrones,' but I don't know if it's my big break.”
“I spend an awful lot of time thinking about stuff that's happened, but I don't want to be someone who's only writing songs because it's therapy.”
“I'm such a pessimist. I find it impossible to enjoy anything, especially while it's happening. I'm thinking about how to get the next thing right.”
“No one ever told me I had a good voice or anything; no one ever told me I could sing. They just let me get on with it.”
“You can get money, and you can win awards, and you can be on magazines, but that's not going to make you happy.”
“I don't really go to fancy parties, so I'm not really familiar with that kind of celebrity lifestyle. I don't dress up a lot. My girlfriend and I walk a lot and watch a lot of movies, and my friends and I go to the park or each others' houses.”
“I don't want to be a celebrity. I don't want to be on posters. I want to be good.”
“I'm not going to lie: I'm awful at mornings. Once I'm awake, it still takes me half an hour to actually get out of bed.”
“For evening stuff, I like Topman. It's good value; it fits well. I surprise a lot of people when they ask me what I'm wearing, and I say Topman. They always expect it to be something more expensive.”
“My head is filled with things I think I should be doing or should've done already. I slow down because I doubt myself or I get anxious or have a bout of depression. Then I have to build my confidence back up, and once that happens, then I power through until the next time.”
“I don't want to be scared. I want to keep taking risks, keep working hard.”
“As a kid, growing up, as far as I was concerned, I was Luke Skywalker. Any sort of small victory or any adversity I would come up against at school, I was like, 'How would Luke Skywalker deal with this?' Everybody was the Empire; anybody who bullied me at school was the Empire.”
“A good rapper is an amazing thing to me. It's like a 17th-, 18th-century poet.”
“I want to be rich enough that, without being cruel, I could buy a horse, a white horse, and permanently attach a horn. A pearlescent horn. And then I could just be like, 'Yeah, I have a unicorn.' But I don't know how you do that without being cruel.”
“I can't even believe that anyone's paying to see me. It's so weird that there's a good possibility that at least 10 people I don't know have bought my music.”
“I write songs when I need to. That's how I write songs: when there's something that's bugging me. If something's troubling me, and I don't really know how to articulate it to people directly - my friends, my family, or my girlfriend - then I'll write a song about it because I know I can articulate it that way.”
“I'm generally a fairly shy, withheld person. But when I get onstage, I get a bit mad.”
“I'm kind of... I'm a sci-fi fan, and I like horror; I'm a genre fan... but fantasy's not really ever something I've gotten into.”
“I don't know who can really relate to being cool. Even people who you think are cool, they are trying to be cool. Nobody can understand the feeling of being cool, really.”
“I watch films and TV almost like as a hobby - not even as a hobby: it's bordering on careerist. It would be easier to tell you what I'm not into than what I am.”
