When I write songs for myself it's really personal and I just can't have someone else singing it.

Well, I make every song I sing personal. I've never chosen a song that wasn't.

I just couldn't get anyone to sing my songs, so I had to sing my own tunes.

People like me for my songwriting and production, not my singing.

My own singing voice is not very good and I don't think that anybody really sings in their own voice.

I have simply said that there's just a side of me that could not judge anybody singing. It's not who I am. I don't want to be that person.

It bugs me that people think my songs are personal because it means I have to explain myself all the time.

I wouldn't be able to write a song like 'Someone Like You' and get someone else to sing it because it's so personal. It's like giving away your heart.

I sing, but I don't think of myself as a singer.

I've sung other people's music all my life.
