Quote

I think I just have a problem generally in life of wanting more of everything - more emotion, more drama, more glitz.

I can't just have one painting - I need to cover the wall in paintings. It's the same with my music. I want to mix everything together to create more.

I dyed my hair red when I was ten and when I was 11 - in my goth period - I dyed it black and I was really into witchcraft. I made mini shrines in my bedroom with candles and tried to cast spells to make the boy in the next class fall in love with me. I don't think he did.

You can forget anything, and actually being a part of a crowd, of a group, can itself be freeing.

Maybe in music you're making an auditory environment and maybe you change your environment around you to suit your own way.

I've got my ideal job. I like to sing, I like to dance, I like to bang drums and dress up, and someone pays me - it's incredible.

Touring, and being in a band, it's almost like the other stuff, the other parts of life, get put on hold.

I'm quite glad I never learned to play the guitar, because I think I'd write songs that were more classically structured. As it is, I've had to create my own way of writing, which isn't typical. Everything's a big crescendo.

The stage is the place I feel comfortable - it's almost as if real life is where I feel most nervous. Conversations are a lot more nerve-wracking.

I got to live out my 11-year-old fantasies - I got to go on stage with Green Day. Billie Joe called my name from the stage. 'Dookie' was the first album I ever bought. I covered the whole of 'Nimrod' and he'd heard it. That was like the 11-year-old girl dreamed.

Love is horrible. I mean, when you're in love, it's like a sickness. Such madness.

On stage, you can use your emotions. It's the place where you can channel them. They have a purpose.

I like a house party and fancy dress, a big fan of fancy dress, like dress up, costume parties.

I made music with my friend, who we called Isabella Machine to which I was Florence Robot. When I was about an hour away from my first gig, I still didn't have a name, so I thought 'Okay, I'll be Florence Robot/Isa Machine', before realising that name was so long it'd drive me mad.

I can't wait to get on stage, because there you don't worry about whether you'll ever get married because your life is insane, or whether you'll ever have another boyfriend again, you don't worry about the typical boundaries of how your life has to be.

I get in fights with my sister all the time. She comes on the road with me and we fight - like sisters do.

I quite like the drama of an encore. I think an encore is for those artists who are inclined to do dramatic gestures, and I certainly would say I am inclined towards them.

Going to parties usually makes me feel depressed, just because I have such social fear after meeting people.

I'm one of those people that is up for most things. When I was offered to sing at the Oscars I was like, 'Yeah, I want to know what that's like!' I'm always curious to know what things are like - as long as you're not compromising who you are.

Hands up if you’re ready to do something you’ll regret this weekend. Go forth! You have my blessing.

What I really like seeing from the stage is people having their own moments, when people are doing some performance of their own.
