Ten Years after the release of Torn, Natalie Imbruglia is back with a new single, Glorious.
How's life changed since the success of Torn?
I'm more relaxed. I was scared back then, I didn't want to be controlled. I felt I had to fight a lot of battles
Was that a reaction to the controlling regime of Neighbours?
It was fear. When I moved to the UK, I couldn't get a work permit. I couldn't afford a flight home. It was a harsh reality check.
You're married now [to Silverchair singer Daniel Johns] but you had some high-profile relationships. Wasn't Big Mistake about David Schwimmer?
No, where did you hear that? I would never discuss what songs are about but, since you're asking, it definitely was not.

Where do you see yourself in ten years?
Making movies. Hopefully I'll have a brood of children - well, two.
Daniel lives in Australia and you're in London, how does that work out?
It's hard. We have a deal that we won't go longer than one month without seeing each other.
You've cut your hair short. Why?
People would always tell me they preferred it short, and I got bored and wanted something fresh.
Natalie's new single, Glorious, is out now on Brightside Records.
