I was totally romanticizing the idea of Los Angeles when the Doors, Joni Mitchell, and Neil Young were hanging out there.
-
I'm actually a really shy person. I just really enjoy being in studio; I don't go out much.
-
I don't relate to the 'Twilight' books or movies at all, but I'm obsessed with it as a pop culture phenomenon - all these people just screaming like it was the Beatles.
-
Sometimes when I write songs, I don't know what they're about, and it just suddenly comes to me.
-
I don't live anywhere. I have always dreamed of moving out of my country because Sweden is boring.
-
I'm just not interested in getting judged or getting people to love me. Being seen and taking my photo and having to follow this schedule all the time, I don't enjoy it.
-
I think everything in life comes in threes: heartbreak and all that. You've got to do the full round in order to learn.
-
When I was very little, I was into Michael Jackson. At six or seven, it was Madonna, but she's not what she used to be. I've been into everything from Edith Piaf to Joe Strummer to the Velvet Underground to Suicide to A Tribe Called Quest to African music.
-
It's important that the way you dress tells a story and reveals something about you and your philosophy.
-
Mum is a photographer, and Dad does world music and plays almost every instrument except for drums.
-
My dream is to one day just be me and my guitar. I'm working myself to the core. Who am I, underneath everything else? I'm still on that journey, to find that core.

Touring is really about being on edge the whole time - you're like a racing horse: you've just got to be on. You've got to pull it together.
-
I'm not so interested in being indie just for the sake of being indie.
-
I do everything: I'll have a green juice, then a melted chocolate ice cream. I stay up very late, I get up very early.
-
My favourite festival experience is a show at midnight with the moon blazing and a crowd full of open hearts ready to dance.
-
I want people to have a good time. It's boring only to hear singer/songwriters spilling their guts.
-
I felt such a deep connection with dolphins. I felt like they were the only ones who understood me.
-
I always feel like I've been slightly misunderstood. As a woman, you get judged for appearances or things like that I don't really care about.
-
It's amazing, coconut oil. I use it as a moisturizer. I put it in my hair when I want a kind of greasy look. I take off my makeup with it. I put a little bit in my coffee. I have coconut oil with everything.
-
I've always been a person that is searching for truth and always wants to go further, deeper.
-
It's a very proactive thing to be dealing with your darkness and getting it out of your system. So it doesn't have to be in your system.
-
Most things in life come as a surprise.
-
If anything, I want to be seen as a singer-songwriter rather than a pop artist.
-
I'm always looking for silhouettes that seem 'invisible' to the eye, as in that it's so well-tailored to your body that you won't even notice what you're wearing. It needs to be dramatic in a subtle way.
