I'm rarely singing in English.

Part of my joy as a singer is to give gifts to people, and one way I try to connect to them is to add something in French or German or whatever.

Sometimes when I have an idea, and I say, 'Okay, let's - it will be great, maybe, if I sing in English, a couple of songs.' Now, the record company and everybody's like, 'No way, you have to sing in Spanish.' And that's, you know, really good for me.

I've just had a wonderful time doing Chinese music, and it's been so rewarding for me. I feel like there's so much potential in mandarin music, and there's so much, you know, ground left to be broken.

After using four different languages on an album, it's tough to decide which one I'm gonna actually learn to speak. I always study the lyric, make sure I know what I'm singing, and try to get the pronunciation as perfect as possible.

I always like to get local music when I'm in another country.

Instrumental music can spread the international language.

Even though I am signed to an American label, I want Australia to fall in love with my music because if it doesn't work here, it won't work anywhere.

Once you know the Romance languages, singing in those languages is so sexy and sensual. I do have a global audience, so why not?
