Worst nightmares can also appear with your eyes open Picture Quote #1

It’s always darkness before the dawn Picture Quote #1

I think music should be scary. Music is an exorcism Picture Quote #1

My style of playing is more enthusiasm and instinct than skill Picture Quote #1

I’ve been thinking about songwriting more in terms of playing it live, and how it will sound as a band Picture Quote #1

The stage is the place I feel comfortable - it’s almost as if real life is where I feel most nervous. Conversations are a lot more nerve-wracking Picture Quote #1

All the words are already there when you’re singing onstage, it’s fantastic. You can lose yourself in what you’ve created. You’re controlling this freedom Picture Quote #1

In a conversation, the words can get stuck, I don’t know what to say, I get very anxious Picture Quote #1

When you’re heartbroken, you’re at your most creative - you have to channel all your energies into something else to not think about it. Contentment is a creativity killer, but don’t worry - I’m very capable of making myself discontented Picture Quote #1

I’ve got quite a vivid imagination and I’m easily overwhelmed by sensations and things that are beautiful or scary. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a ghost - I think I’m probably haunted by my own ghosts than real ones Picture Quote #1

When I’m singing I’m always trying to get to the highest point possible. I’d fly to the top of Buckingham Palace to sing to the queen Picture Quote #1

I get in fights with my sister all the time. She comes on the road with me and we fight - like sisters do Picture Quote #1

I used to dress like an eight-year-old boy. Traveling has inspired me to be more experimental Picture Quote #1

I’m pretty obsessed with Stevie Nicks from her style to her voice. I like watching her on YouTube and her old performances, the way she moves and everything Picture Quote #1

At the beginning of my career I was going through a really weird phase of dressing in boys clothes. I would only wear one American Apparel T-shirt and shorts and brogues the whole year round. Not the same T-shirt, obviously, but one style of American Apparel T-shirt. I think I was going through a tomboy stage Picture Quote #1

Bono told me how to dance in high heels and he also told me about U2’s Glastonbury performance and how everything that could have possibly gone wrong went wrong, including him ripping his trousers on stage. I think he was lunging and his trousers ripped! He was telling me how he had to find a new way of performing that didn’t involve moving Picture Quote #1

I got to live out my 11-year-old fantasies - I got to go on stage with Green Day. Billie Joe called my name from the stage. ‘Dookie’ was the first album I ever bought. I covered the whole of ‘Nimrod’ and he’d heard it. That was like the 11-year-old girl dreamed Picture Quote #1

I made music with my friend, who we called Isabella Machine to which I was Florence Robot. When I was about an hour away from my first gig, I still didn’t have a name, so I thought ‘Okay, I’ll be Florence Robot/Isa Machine’, before realising that name was so long it’d drive me mad Picture Quote #1

I saw ‘The Artist.’ It’s really beautiful and it’s all done to the letter with all the silent film techniques. The costumes were amazing and the dog is so good Picture Quote #1

I was having a conversation with my father and he was talking about this thing - strangeness and charm. It’s actually the name of the two smallest particles that there are when you split the atom, so I wrote a song around it. I even managed to fit the word ‘hydrogen’ in there. Isn’t that a nice thing for scientists to call them though? Picture Quote #1

I’ve been having this really weird anxiety dream about arriving too late or too early, and the people in charge are like, ‘You have to leave! You have to go back to the hotel and get ready!’ And I use the wrong exit, and I’m running down the red carpet in pyjamas, like, ‘No! Don’t look at me!’ Picture Quote #1

The aesthetic came along the way, I think - just through experimenting, and going on tour, and trying stuff out on stage, having fun with it, and not taking it too seriously. If I had a ballgown at home, I’d wear it onstage. If I found something in a charity shop, I’d wear it. That’s where it grew from - just wanting to play dress-up Picture Quote #1

The first album, for better or for worse, was done over from the ages of 17-22, with a couple of different producers. Some of it was recorded in an old swimming pool, some of it was recorded in a synagogue - it kind of was all over the place Picture Quote #1

When I first started, especially because I got the Critics’ Choice before I’d released an album, there was a lot of scrutiny on what my character was, what my background was, what colour my hair was. I fought quite hard for the music to overtake the personality aspect Picture Quote #1
