I have a dark side. I think everyone does.
Charli XCX
I want to create an experience with my music.
Charli XCX
When I first started, I wasn't really aware of anything in the industry or aware of who I really was. I just put my music out there and tried to get as many people to hear it as possible.
Charli XCX
I've been thinking about where I want to take my live show. I want everything in it to be pink, gold, and black. I don't want people to feel any other colors, like brown or yellow.
Charli XCX
I'm very closed off when it comes to working with people, I'm very selective.
Charli XCX
I always look at my favourite photographs or favourite movies by James Bidgood or Sofia Coppola before I write my songs - they put me in the right frame of mind.

I feel like the worst fashion moments of the '90s were kind of the best.
Charli XCX
I know some people are like I'm depressed and I'm a struggling artist and that really works for some people, but that doesn't work for me. I have to be really happy, even when I'm writing my depressing songs I have to come through that stage before I can write. I have to be in a good place. I'm a positive person.
Charli XCX
I've definitely become more commercially successful. I think everything has changed over the past two years. People seem to take me seriously now as a songwriter for other artists and as an artist, which is funny to me because I always thought I was good. I guess that's the main change, which is pretty interesting.
Charli XCX
I was really selfish, and I didn't want to listen to anyone. Then I started working with some really amazing people, traveling more, and figuring out who I was as a person - looking at different things, listening to different music.
Charli XCX
I don't want to be a pop star. I want to be a nursery-rhyme star!
Charli XCX
I've never been to New Zealand actually. All I know is that there's a lot of greenery there. I'd love to come and play a show there sometime soon for sure!
Charli XCX
I started writing my own things when I was about 8. I used to try to bully my friends into imitating the Spice Girls on the playground. Then I realized, Oh god, my career's going nowhere, so I looked in the Yellow Pages and phoned up the first cheap studio that I found and started recording.
Charli XCX
[My mom] worries about me going and taking drugs, whereas my dad advises me on what drugs to take and what ones not to take. So, they're very different.
Charli XCX
I can't stand to hear my own voice. If one of my songs comes on in a café, I'll run out right away and come back with the police.
Charli XCX
I love the rawness in fashion.
