School Quotes

When I was in London I found house music and techno, and I love that s - t. It's my go-to music. It's the closest for me to the old funk of James Brown and the repetitive dance music that I like from the soul music. I'd love to do a live album, like a little bit old school but still progressive, influenced maybe by more electronic music. I like everything, but I don't know anything about music. So it comes in to a lot of different ingredients.

When I was eight or nine, I wrote a new version of 'Peter Pan' for the school play.

I came on trying to be terrifying, but everyone laughed at me.
