We could ask artists from abroad to come in too, so that there could be a mixing and matching of skills from Europe, America and here which would widen our world.

I'm still trying to make it. I'm still trying to get this over and do it and hopefully leave some kind of a mark on the course of American music, particularly in the tradition of what you might call the singer-songwriter.

We live in a fractured world. I've always seen it as my role as an artist to attempt to make wholeness.

Conquering America for a U.K. artist is incredible because that's what everybody wants and dreams about. The accomplishment is dominating a market which you aren't familiar with.

I'm a songwriter and I'd love to make that a part of my career.

I consider myself more of an international artist than I do a one-territory artist, which I think is a blessing.

I want to make music that somehow connects to the things that I love in America music.

I wouldn't make an anti-American film. I'm one of the most pro-American foreigners I know. I love America and Americans.

I'd love to work in America, some of my favourite films come from America.
