Full name: Katie Evitchka and The Shepherds sing the Sigur Rós songbook

Real name: None of the above

Do you remember the 1980s?: Yes, I was ambassador to several countries back then. Namely Orbit, and Hubba Bubba. They were once countries and have now been converted to chewing gum by a large evil computer.

Least compatible starsign: Scorpions.

What's for dinner tonight?: I'm going to have to say a snake too.

What did your mum make of your fame?: She doesn't know yet, I'm sure she would stalk me above the acceptable limit.

Does your passport request or demand?: It's a fake made out of jam and bits of metal.

What is the cost of 15 balls at $0.85 each?: What's a ball?

I buy 3 lettuces at 85c each and 4kg of carrots at 40c per kg. What do I pay?: What sort of a disgusting shop is this?

So, Matthew, what inspired 'Composition-Improvisation nr. 1'?: The little hedges in fields that you get, especially when you're driving to Harrogate.

If there was a public execution on TV, would you watch it?: Who is it? I did once, only it was a film, but I watched it for I am hard.

Can you urinate in front of another person?: If they wern't looking. And if they also wern't there.

Have the charts gone down the toilet?: No! They're the best they've ever been! I was at #1 last week so they must be good.

Are the Bloodhound Gang being nice to you?: No, they are soooooooooooooooooooooooo jealous. Y'all jealous of me.

How do you feel about the success of Blink 182?: I didn't, I was in India filming my casual biography of Johnny Ball.

What's been the most rock'n'roll event of your career so far?: If you've seen the pictures with all the geese you'd know. But yeah, apart from that, it must've been that time in 1992 when me and Princess Diana formed the supergroup Saltloss and trashed a hotel room in Dulwich.

Are you an 'it'-girl?: As in computers and that? Yes, I am an expert on the ZX Spectrum.

Recording on lo-fi was certainly a bold move on your part. How did the idea come to you?: It was one of my visions, this time of the devil, and he was holding the head of St. Micheal, like from the shop. They were posed so memorabley I couldn't NOT record on lo-fi. They just occured, like the Weenie who reverses road signs.

What would happen if you dug a tunnel through the centre of the earth?: You would fall down it to the other side and when you go through the other side you would start falling back the other way until somebody catches you. And that person would be me, because I will welcome anybody from the other side of the world to live either in my garden or in the piano room that does not house a piano.

Why can't Americans spell 'centre'?: I know, I can't stand it when you see them putting 'middle' when quite obviously they've missed out the r.

If you could be one electrical appliance, what would it be?: A fibre-optic flower display, like you see in the homes of the rich and famous, or people who buy them on sale in the gadget shop. It instantly turns your house into a sci-fi fantasy home of the future.
