loving main music people playing radio stuff tv
I think it's all about the people who listen to your music, and loving playing and writing. Once you've got those two, and they're your main two priorities, then radio and TV and all the other stuff that comes with it will come. But that's not the be-all end-all.
bruce exposed love mitchell music neither record though
My parents are music fans, even though neither of them play an instrument. I was exposed to their record collection, so I love everything from Joni Mitchell to Bruce Springsteen.
quite
I'm quite annoying and can't imagine what it would be like living with me 24/7.
albums arrogant commercial credible felt good loyal mind people release youtube
YouTube was really good for building a kind of core, loyal fanbase. I didn't want to be a YouTube artist as such. I mean, there are people who are able to release albums and live off YouTube, but I felt - and not in an arrogant way - that I could be commercial and credible if I really put my mind to it.
lists buckets different
I've kind of achieved everything I thought that I never would, so I haven't really got a bucket list. But I really wanna go to loads of different places.
song writing stories
I've been writing songs since I was like six or seven. I've been writing poetry and short stories and stuff, but my first serious, serious song, I wrote when I was fourteen.
scary audience
When you're playing to an audience that isn't your own, it's quite scary.
thinking people advice
Just do what you want, I don't think you should ever... pointers and tips from people is great, and it's good and I don't think you should ever shun down advice, but if you feel something's wrong, then you don't do it. And that's what I'd say.
jobs thinking people
I think being a singer-songwriter... your job is to tell a story that other people can't really tell themselves.
dream hardy
I love Françoise Hardy. She's my dream, she's just amazing.
long together matter
As long as we're together, does it matter where we go?
