I hope to have a long career, and I don't want to be defined by things that aren't the music.

But at this phase of my life, I want to write and not have to think about whether a song is going to be a hit. I want to explore the music that inspires me, and I don't want to ape myself.

I just want to make music, I don't want people to talk about me. All I've ever wanted to do was sing. I don't want to be a celebrity. I don't want to be in people's faces, you know, constantly on covers of magazine that I haven't even known I'm on.

But I have never wanted to be a singer, because the exterior part of a career, I don't like very much.

I'm not looking for career attention, for more success, more money. I'm just singing songs I chose because I love them.

I've done a couple of songs which are not up to the mark. So, mentally, I've set a goal that I should be more dynamic and try and push myself as much as I can.

I don't think about what I can't do or what I shouldn't be doing. I just think there are endless possibilities musically, really.

My own personal goal is I just hope to still write songs and kind of let that sustain me as a job. If I could never have a 9-to-5 job, and making a living doing this, it'd just be incredible.
