I'm a Prince of Wales Trust ambassador so I'm all about giving youth an education a voice and a chance to not take the wrong road.

I've spent a bit of time with the Prince of Wales who I respect greatly. I'd give two cheers for the Monarchy.

Growing up in Wales was a pretty Draconian experience with religion.

To be born in Wales not with a silver spoon in your mouth but with music in your blood and with poetry in your soul is a privilege indeed.

I therefore declare that if you wish any remission of the taxation which falls upon the homes of the people of England and Wales you can only find it by reducing the great military establishments and diminishing the money paid to fighting men in time of peace.

I maintain that when I finally retire from my career in music I will go and live back in Wales - when I am an old person if I live to be an old person. The water I miss and the air there's something different about it. And I miss the simple life.

I brought a Border Collie back home to Vancouver from Wales - where some of my ancestors are from - and needed to challenge him in other ways than just being my pet. So I investigated sheep herding and took a few lessons and decided I was probably learning more than my dog!

I'm launching my own festival in South Wales. It's something I've wanted to do for a long time. It's going to be held at Margam Park because I wanted the venue to be as close to my home as possible.

I really see myself as a homegirl. Wales is my first home. London is my second home - I've been there 14 years now.

I'm one of five kids and we lived on a massive farm in New South Wales with my mum and dad.
