artistic reason
When you're playing festivals, you only get a half-hour. It's like a meat market. You don't get to be artistic. You don't get to play music. It's called a showcase for a reason.
computer cold share
I don't like going to the studio. It just seems too cold. There's no crowd to react to, or share anything with; it's just talking into a microphone that's going into a computer.
thinking singing
I think I like singing when I'm singing live. It's just in the studio when it's a drag.
block character giving
If you've ever sang in falsetto, you know that your throat is between your voice and your mouth. In a standard voice, you sing from your belly. And when you sing in a falsetto, you're blocking that. It gives it a filter. It gives it a character. It's less revealing.
character thinking singing
I think I prefer singing in falsetto. I like the way it sounds. It doesn't sound like my natural voice. It sounds like a character.
song long musical
I have been singing as long as I can remember. I used to be in choir; I used to do musical theater. I'd prefer not to sing my own songs, but there you have it.
hate singing i-hate
I hate my voice. I've never been comfortable singing.
mean people morality
That's what I mean by "Western morality," is the lack of morality. There is none. People are out for themselves, and they'll stab you in the back.
As it turns out, it's really expensive to make movies, much more than records.
writing trying performing
I just like writing lyrics. I find a little satisfaction in performing live, making records. But primarily, I just try to write every day.
loneliness feelings reason
Usually there's no specific reason for loneliness - it's a broad feeling.
people care kind
I don't care much about politics. That kind of witchcraft I stay away from because people end up dead. I'd rather die for music.
jobs thinking way
I don't think music is my job - I don't think about it that way, because I don't really get paid. There's no paycheck at the end; it's more of a 'whatever is left over' kind of situation.
weight opinion third-person
Opinions only carry weight in the second or third person.
