I always knew what I wanted, and I always had a very clear vision for myself and my career as an artist.
The 'Raining Gold' video naturally took on one of the messages behind the song, which is you should never assume anything about someone or a situation just because it looks a certain way on the surface.
I grew up playing the piano, but you know, as a rebellious child, I convinced myself that I hated it.
I have always been me.
It's natural to want to rebel against what your parents do.
I'm not some weirdo depressed daughter that's afraid of the world - that locks herself in her room all day.
I don't think I will ever cross-contaminate my private life and my family life with my public and professional worlds.
Loss is something that I think is ultimately the number one struggle for humans.
My entire life, I was told I was an old soul. I never really connected with other children when I was growing up.
Once I accepted music was my path, I rebelled by wanting to do it my own way. I also didn't think it was respectful to my father's career and creativity to assume that I could jump on the back of all he had worked his entire life for.
I was a little bit of a loner, but fascinated with emotions that people feel.
I think for me I'm always... I find myself to be a very curious person when something interests me and I find that I'm attracted to that mystery.
I'm a very what-you-see-is-what-you-get kind of person, and my family always laughs at me. They're like, 'You have minus-zero poker-face skills. We just have to look at your face and we know what's wrong with you.'
I don't really consider my music anything other than 'moody.' I don't know if that's a genre.
My private life is very important.
When you're famous, you have a certain sense of responsibility because so many people are looking at you for inspiration and for influence.
There was definitely a time where I really didn't want to be in the public eye, or have people know who I was and then they knew what my last name was, and you know, I've battled with that a little bit.
My dad's a man of few words.
My nickname is Saffy.
It's kind of like OK, I want to be a singer. And I felt if I would have stayed with the 'Osbournes' and done the whole Osbourne thing... I would have been typecasted right away before I had a chance to experience other things.
