"I love 'Top Gear'. It's my favorite show." — Amy Macdonald

I'm always being told I've got an old head on young shoulders, which is probably due to the way my mum and dad brought me up.

I hate getting my photograph taken; just because I'm a musician doesn't mean I should have to sell my soul and have pictures of myself on stage with a red face and sweaty armpits plastered over 'Heat!' every week. I'm not a model.

I have a lot of fans in places like Germany, Switzerland and Austria, and I spend a lot of time there.

Since I was 18 I was in the record industry doing my own thing, and I had to be that strong person.
