hey everyone

I’ve been deeply upset by something that was written recently, so i really want to tell you this.

we love and adore all our fans and have always celebrated your diversity, especially at our concerts. looking out into the audience at the mix of people, our fans in all their glory,  is something i really cherish and am very proud of.  myself and Will have loved meeting you before and after concerts and have made films of you in all your finery.  i have definitely never seen or met anyone who i considered a ‘weirdo’.

all my love to you and  look forward to catching up soon xxxxxxxxxxxxxx

hey everyone how are ya!?  last time i sat writing a blog i was in a cosy little hotel room in Berlin looking out of the window into the night at the fine buildings lit up in the snow. i was just thinking how georgeous everything looked when the tragic news of alexander mcqueen came through.  i stopped, went down to the bar, sat with Will and our lady form the record company and spent the evening talking about what a legend he was.  that must have been a couple of weeks ago now i guess.

we’ve been buzzing around all over the place doing press and talking our asses off.  my god, talking about yourself constantly is such a weird thing to do.  although 98% of the journalists have been very nice and enthusiastic with no major weirdos.

you’re probably wondering where the hell the ‘rocket’ video is?  there has been quite a bit of post production on this (and very little budget) so people have been working really hard  to get it to you as soon as we possibly can.  it’s nearly there…….!

also, we’re putting the band together at the moment….and we have a new drummer Daisy !  we’ll be starting rehearsals very soon, i cant wait.

Will and i are doing more interviews today and i’m gonna be doing womans hour and lauren leverne both live.  i should be used to doing all this chat by now but im getting quite nervous already!

i think that’s it for now.  it’s been quite an intense few weeks with some days seeming all a bit surreal, but its all coming together.  i know i keep saying this but i can’t wait to bloody play the music ! talk soon xxxx

how awful this is so sad .  so talented, amazing ,inspiring. this is  such a dreadful loss for the world.xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxbless you
