“When I was a kid I didn't feel like I fit in because - this is really silly and I probably shouldn't say it, but, I didn't think anything was funny.

“I don't think I really knew how fit I was when I was a kid. I rode with my dad quite long distances and I've been racing since the age of nine, so we did a lot of sport growing up.

“I remember reading a book that was on songwriting at some point that I found in my dad's store, and just... I did not relate at all.
