मुझे लगता है कि बहुत से लोग इस सोच में पड़ जाते हैं कि किसी और के लिए रचना करना अपने उसूलों को बेचना है, जबकि ऐसा बिल्कुल नहीं है। यह एक मूर्खतापूर्ण और थोड़ा दिखावटी नज़रिया है।

I feel like so many people get into that place where creating for someone else is selling out and it is so not about that. It is a stupid, kind of pretentious way of thinking.

जब मैं ऐसा कुछ बनाती हूँ जिससे मुझे लगता है कि लोग जुड़ाव महसूस करेंगे, तो मुझे बहुत खुशी होती है क्योंकि मैं जानती हूँ कि वह चीज़ मुझ तक सीमित नहीं रहेगी, बल्कि उससे आगे निकल जाएगी।

For me, I need people who will respect my vision and will back it and won't go changing things without letting me know. I would love some people who I feel like I could work with on a personal level as well.

मैं एक ऐसे दौर में पहुँच गई थी जहाँ मैं कोई पंक्ति लिखती और फिर यह सोचकर उसे डिलीट कर देती कि वह सुनने में कैसी लग रही है। सच कहूँ तो, मैं एक बहुत बुरी इंसान बन गई थी और यह सब अपने अंदर के उसी अपराधबोध से निपटने का एक तरीका था।

I'd gotten to a point where I would write a lyric and then delete it because I was worried about how it sounded. Pretty much, I was a dreadful person and It was just a way of dealing with feeling kind of guilty about that.

मुझे लगता है कि मेरा सबसे पहला गाना तब बना था जब मेरी बिल्ली मर गई थी। वह एक भयानक, डरावनी काली बिल्ली थी जो हमेशा गुस्से में रहती थी और हर चीज़ से नफरत करती थी। फिर भी, उसके मरने पर मुझे बहुत दुख हुआ था।

I think my first song ever was when my cat died. It was this awful, dreadful black cat who was angry and hated everything. Yet I was so upset when it died.

I feel like if you compare yourself to other successful musicians you will never be successful, because there will always be someone above you who has done something more or done something first or done something better.

मुझे अभिनय करना बहुत पसंद है, और अभिनय करने का एकमात्र ज़रिया कम्युनिटी थिएटर था जहाँ वे सिर्फ म्यूजिकल नाटक करते थे। मेरा संगीत से जुड़ाव ऐसे ही शो-ट्यून्स से हुआ जो मुझे बिल्कुल पसंद नहीं हैं और मैं तब से इससे दूर भागने की कोशिश कर रही हूँ।

I love to act, so the only way I could act was through community theatre and they would just do musicals. My musical upbringing was show-tunes and it sucks and I have been trying to get away from it ever since.

मुझे लगता है कि सफलता वास्तव में एक व्यक्तिगत नज़रिया है। आप स्कूल का कोई टैलेंट शो जीतकर यह सोच सकते हैं कि "मैं सफल हो गया", या न्यूज़ीलैंड में नंबर वन पर पहुँचकर यह सोच सकते हैं कि "मैं सफल हो गया", या फिर ग्रैमी जीतकर यह सोच सकते हैं कि "मैं सफल हो गया"।

I feel like success is really subjective. You could win a school talent show and be like "I was successful", or you could get a Number One in New Zealand and be like "I was successful', or you could win a Grammy and be like "I was successful".

मेरे पापा ट्रोम्बोन बजाते थे और शायद मेरी मम्मी ने करीब दो साल तक पियानो बजाया था। यह पूरी तरह से मेरा अपना शौक है। उन्होंने मुझे पियानो सीखने के लिए प्रेरित ज़रूर किया, लेकिन कभी किसी चीज़ के लिए दबाव नहीं डाला। उन्होंने कभी मुझे गाने या किसी और चीज़ के लिए मजबूर नहीं किया, वह सब मैंने अपनी मर्जी से किया।

My Dad played the trombone and I think my Mom played the piano for about two years. It is very self-driven. They pushed me to do piano lessons, but they were never forceful about anything. They never pushed me to sing or anything, it was something that I did myself.

अभिनय करना मज़ेदार है। मुझे यह पसंद है, लेकिन इसे गंभीर स्तर पर करने के ज़्यादा मौके नहीं मिलते। यह या तो घटिया कम्युनिटी म्यूजिकल जैसा होता है, या फिर अगर आप भाग्यशाली हैं तो किसी गंभीर प्रोजेक्ट में आपको कास्ट कर लिया जाता है। मुझे लगता है कि इसके पीछे पूरी शिद्दत से पड़ना पड़ता है, और जहाँ तक मेरी बात है, मेरा ध्यान थोड़ा भटक जाता है।

Acting is fun. I enjoy it, but there is just not many opportunities to do it on a serious level. It is kind of either bad community musicals, or if you are lucky enough to be cast in something serious. I feel like you really have to be going after it, and for me I am a little bit distracted.

I often come up with a phrase that I really like, I write it down and it stays in my notes folder, and when I'm writing I will scroll through and see if it kind of fits and if I can mould a verse around it.
