"One of my earliest memories of writing at a piano was alongside my sister." — Sara Bareilles

My favourite thing to do in any city is just to get lost and go for long walks.

I wasn't Britney Spears or Jessica Simpson. I wasn't Tori Amos or Norah Jones. Nobody knew what to do with me.

I have spent my whole career worrying that the big bad pop monster was going to eat me when I wasn't looking.

I'm mostly a mess, and I hide it pretty well a lot of time.
