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.
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.
writing giving people
I write for myself, and I write for my friends and people who I have a connection with. I try to give some dignity to peoples' lifestyles that tend to be ignored.
song heart cutting
I project love, music and love, and I pray for peace. A good song cuts straight to the heart; sometimes it doesn't need to be too many lines - of course, I do love a good story.
