Sometimes it's hard to open up about your personal life, your relationship because you always want the music to be in the forefront. You want the music to be the biggest carrier of everything that you represent.

Maybe my songs are my partner. How 'bout that? Yeah, the biggest relationship I have is with my songs.

Anybody I'm dating, I don't want them to talk about my music. I don't talk about my music to them.

Most of my songs aren't about me. They're about stuff I've seen.

If anybody is excited about my music, that's all I care about. I care about people who are excited about new music.

If I have one success in my relationship history, it's with the people who listen to my music. I think that they'll be there with me forever, and I'll be there with them forever. And I'm totally satisfied with that.

Even though the popularity and the fanbase is much much greater, and more people have heard about me through things like the Grammys and the Ivors and touring and word of mouth, it doesn't reflect in the sales of the record and doesn't go into my pocket.

I'm gonna be honest. I don't care about much. I care about people liking my music. I made it very far without nothing being on radio.

I won't lie - when you're first bringing out music and you want people to notice, you probably overdo it, especially as a girl.

I've talked about sex a great deal in my music for a great while now. I feel very comfortable with it.
