What I do is I write mainly about very personal and rather lonely feelings, and I explore them in a different way each time. You know, what I do is not terribly intellectual. I'm a pop singer for Christ's sake. As a person, I'm fairly uncomplicated. ↗

I think my biggest flaw is my insecurity. I'm terribly insecure. I'm plagued with insecurities 24/7. ↗
