Using telephones, they would be so intrusive and would really disrupt the show.

What am I singing? A song of seeds The food of love. Eat the music.

I love the whirling of the dervishes. I love the beauty of rare innocence. You don't need no crystal ball, Don't fall for a magic wand. We humans got it all, we perform the miracles.
Kate Bush

I was so nervous every night that I had to really focus and keep myself in that moment so that I would not forget the words. I was really present for every song.

The thing with 50 Words of Snow is that it was literally back-to-back from Director's Cut [also released in 2011]. It was more or less that I got to make two albums in one hit. I was already in this space in my mind to be writing and making an album.

I spend a lot of time working and with my family, so I don't have much time around the edges to do much else. I don't really listen to a great deal of music. I love music, but since I spend a lot of time in the studio, we probably watch a movie rather than listen to albums. I get to hear stuff, but not on the grand scale.

That doesn't matter. If it speaks to them and they get something positive from it, it's great.

When I'm writing I've been playing something for a couple of hours and I'm almost in a trance. At two or three in the morning you can actually see bits inspiration floating about and grab them.

I love comedy. I like to think that there's a sense of humor in some of my music - obviously not all of it.

Normally I don't compromise at all but it felt important to give that song the chance to be heard.

I think each album does have a different energy, otherwise you'd be doing the same thing again and not experimenting anew... Albums are such autobiographical material, not in the material but as an expression of what you're like at the time.

I saw Stephen Sondheim's Sweeney Todd, which I thought was a masterpiece. Not that long ago, I listened to Blackstar by David Bowie and thought that was a masterpiece. Those are two incredibly talented people who've left their mark with us.

There is magic within, there is magic without. Follow me and you'll learn just what life's all about.

It's not important to me that people understand me.

We let it in, we give it out, and in the end what's it all about? It must be love.

Disappearing act? That's a magic trick, isn't it? I like magic tricks!

I think that music is something that surpasses trends, fashions music is something much deeper.

When you'd buy vinyl, you'd have this lovely-sized object with a lovely picture, and you'd read the lyrics and usually there was something artistic that went with it.

I split it up into working on the two narrative pieces that can tell a story. The scariest thing was whether I'd be any good performing live again. It was such a long time since I'd done any live work. It's so different for me than recording. Every night my audiences were what I would dream of. You could just feel their support.

I will say it is great to have a woman in charge of the country.
