आम तौर पर गाना पूरी तरह तैयार हो चुका होता है। मैं उसमें हर काम करती हूँ—बैकग्राउंड वोकल्स, सब कुछ—लेकिन उल्टे-पुलटे और बेतुके शब्दों में। ज़्यादातर यह उन बुदबुदाहटों पर आधारित होता है जिन्हें मैं गाती हूँ। भले ही मैं ऐसे शब्द गाती हूँ जिनका कोई मतलब नहीं होता, फिर भी वे एक अर्थ बनाते नज़र आते हैं।
Usually the song is totally done. I'll do absolutely everything, backing vocals - everything - but in gibberish. A lot of times its based on the mumblings that I sing. Even though I sing in gibberish, it kind of makes sense.

राजनीतिक रूप से, अकेले मेरे कुछ करने से ज़्यादा फर्क नहीं पड़ता, लेकिन एकजुटता की भावना पैदा करना और एक साझा विजन को फिर से जगाना बहुत महत्वपूर्ण है। मुझे लगता है कि यह काम कला, संगीत, लेखन, मनोरंजन और यहाँ तक कि पॉप संस्कृति के ज़रिए बहुत प्रभावी ढंग से किया जा सकता है। असल में यह विचारों को फैलाने और लोगों को अलग तरह से सोचने पर मजबूर करने के बारे में है।
In political sense, it doesn't really matter what I do on my own, but it's so important to rally some sort of collectiveness and reignite a collective vision, and I think that's something you can do effectively through art and music, and through writing and entertainment - and just through like, pop culture. It's about spreading ideas and making people think differently, essentially.

एक गीतकार के रूप में, मैं उस मेलोड्रामा और ज़रूरत से ज़्यादा नाटकीय लेखन से दूर होना चाहती थी जो मैं पहले अक्सर किया करती थी। मुझे लगता है कि समय के साथ मेरे गाने और ज़्यादा सधे हुए और परिपक्व होते गए हैं।
As a songwriter, I was really into pulling away from the melodrama and the overdramatic type of writing that I was previously always doing. I think over time my songs have become more and more restrained.

मैं उस समय शुरुआती हाउस म्यूज़िक के कई ट्रैक सुन रही थी—जैसे शिकागो हाउस और डेट्रायट। और मार्शल जेफरसन का शायद 1980 के आसपास का एक ऐसा ट्रैक है जिसमें कोई इलेक्ट्रॉनिक इंस्ट्रूमेंट, कोई ड्रम मशीन या कुछ भी इस्तेमाल नहीं किया गया है। उसमें बस एक ड्रम वादक और एक पियानो वादक हैं जो यह हाउस म्यूज़िक बजा रहे हैं, और वे इसे वाकई लाइव बजा रहे हैं। मुझे वह अंदाज़ बहुत पसंद आया और मैं उसे अपने इस एल्बम में लाना चाहती थी।
I was listening to a lot of really early house music tracks. Like Chicago house and Detroit. And Marshall Jefferson has a track probably from 1980 - somewhere around there - that doesn't actually have any electronic instruments, no drum machines, nothing. Just a drummer and a piano player and they're playing this house music, but they're actually playing it. I really love that aesthetic and wanted to bring that into the album.

जब मैं बड़ी हो रही थी, तो 18-19 साल की उम्र तक मेरा पूरा ध्यान शास्त्रीय संगीत की दुनिया पर ही था। इसके अलावा मुझे किसी और चीज़ की कोई समझ नहीं थी। जिस चीज़ को थोड़ा बहुत 'कूल बैंड' कहा जा सकता है, उसमें मैंने केवल रेडियोहेड को सुना था। हाई स्कूल में रेडियोहेड ही मेरा इकलौता पसंदीदा बैंड था। मैं बस शास्त्रीय संगीत, ओपेरा, क्लॉड डिबुसी और इसी तरह की चीज़ों में डूबी रहती थी।
When I was growing up, until I was 18 or 19, I was totally invested in the classical music world. I had no concept of anything else. The closest thing to a cool band I listened to was Radiohead. Radiohead were the only band I liked in high school. I was just obsessed with classical music, opera, Claude Debussy, and that kind of stuff.

मुझे लगता है कि जब मैं 18 साल की थी, तो 'नाइन इंच नेल्स' का मुझ पर बहुत गहरा प्रभाव पड़ा था। उन्होंने ही मुझे अपना खुद का संगीत बनाने के लिए प्रेरित किया था।
I think Nine Inch Nails was a really big one for me, when I was 18. They really inspired me to start making my own music.

मैं ऐसे गाने बनाना चाहती थी जो सिर्फ एक अच्छी धुन या प्रोडक्शन न हों बल्कि अपने आप में पूरे गाने लगें। लोग चाहते थे कि मैं कोई सोलो एक्यूस्टिक सेशन करूँ, वे मुझसे कहते थे, "क्या तुम पियानो पर कोई गाना बजा सकती हो?" और मेरा जवाब होता था, "Sस तरह से नहीं। यह उस रूप में ठीक से काम नहीं करता।" मैं ऐसे गाने लिखना चाहती थी जिन्हें अलग-अलग वाद्ययंत्रों के साथ आसानी से बजाया जा सके।
I wanted to try to make songs that worked as songs, not just as productions. People wanted me to do a solo acoustic session, they were like "Can you play song on the piano?" and I was like "Not really. It doesn't really work." I wanted to write songs that would work in a variation of instrumentation.

मुझे लाइव कॉन्सर्ट में नए गाने बजाना बहुत पसंद है। मुझे नए गाने बजाने के बाद दोबारा कोई पुराना गाना बजाना बिल्कुल पसंद नहीं, वह बहुत बोरिंग लगता है।
I love playing the new songs live. I hate playing a new song and then having to play an old song again, it feels really boring.
