Biography
[on singer Cass Elliot] It's the timbre of her voice and also her attitude and being a big woman like that and being confident. I'm very attracted to that sort of confidence and individuality. She was cool.

[on considering herself an artist without a genre] I think I fall into a lot of cracks in terms of I'm too something. I'm too this, I'm too that. And my music has never really had a home. I've been this floating alternative. I'm too mainstream for alternative. I'm too alternative for mainstream. And I'm just kind of wandering.

[on performing one's own songs] As a songwriter you have an umbilical cord to the song and it's hard to expand on your understanding of the lyrics. Whereas when you cover a song you can create your own reason why you're attached to it.

I don't sing in the shower but hiking, yes. Every day I sing a little something, to the radio or to the dogs, or a song will come into my head and I'll sing a line of it, randomly.

[on social networking] It gives me the heebie-jeebies,to be quite honest. The tweeting thing, to me, is just really unnerving. I'm not not interested in [hearing about] somebody having a MacDonald's burger and then 'oh my god, there's a dog crossing the street'.

[on managing her career] I don't want to have it on the front burner. I like it just simmering. I feel at ease right now because it's at a manageable level. People aren't chasing me around with cameras and making me feel uncomfortable anymore. I often say fame is kind of like a drug or like sugar: when it's controlling you it doesn't feel good at all.

[on her idol, Peggy Lee] I became a complete junkie for her . . . She represents an era that is leaving us, one where vocals were king.

I think I have always known it, but I didn't really know there was a name for it, or that it was different, but I have always felt inclined towards women. I have felt inclined towards men - not as deeply or sexually as towards women - but I'm definitely attracted to men.

One of the reasons I wouldn't sleep with a man is because I wouldn't feel equal, both in that I feel more spiritually advanced than men, and because society places men over women. How do you feel equal when you're with a man?

I think masculinity is bravado against the mystery of the universe of women. It's just a fear of not knowing what women have that's so powerful. It's this shield they put up to try to get closer.
