“I miss the days when girls would wear full long dresses and just stand onstage and sing. That's what I'm trying to bring back: that timeless element. I want to create music that people will be listening to in fifty years, you know?”
“My cross earrings are a mini statement; I wear them every day! My whole dream is to be iconic, and the way you dress yourself is so important.”
“When I find the right person, nothing else will matter, but I'm prepared to kiss a lot of frogs.”
“Oh gosh, I dyed my hair red when I was in year 11 with that L'Oreal Live stuff. It was like plumy purple - it was horrific. I looked awful; I don't know what I was thinking!”
“When I write music, it's very strange: maybe it's normal, but I see things in songs in different colors.”
“There is a way to share an insight into your personal life without being classless, which is what I'm trying to do.”
“Even now I doubt myself. I don't understand what people hear in my voice. I can't hear it myself, if you know what I mean.”
“I was once sitting on a tube, and someone was playing my song so loudly through their ear phones next to me. I just stayed silent and chuckled to myself.”
