“Obviously, the big hits like 'Shout,' 'Everybody Wants to Rule the World,' 'Head Over Heels,' we play live, so there's nothing new about them to me.”

“When I became a parent I forgot about the part of myself which was very emotional, very dour a little depressed - but very good at writing emotional songs.”

“I tend to get quite close to the songs because I've always been the main songwriter.”

“When I was very little, I insisted on getting my own pair of heels. And no, the screaming and tears didn't help me get them until I was much older!”

“I prefer jeans to a suit, sneakers to high heels, markets to malls.”

“I go back to the rock n' roll black leather jacket, red lips, smoky eyes. I like my high heels, maybe some leather pants or ripped jeans, things that have never really gone out of style. Again, it's very reflective of who I am as a bandmate in our band.”
