talking creating singers
One of my favorite French singers, Alain Bashung, was the expert at creating his own universe; no one knows what he's talking about, even he doesn't know because it's so poetic.
people world forget
In an ideal world people would know the words just for the show and then forget them right after.
people asks
The more you say no the more people ask.
song apples association
In France a lot of songs were ruined by their associations with commercials. But so far no Apple commercial has ruined a song for me.
children tv-shows use
In France, anyone can use your music on like a TV show or whatever - they don't need to ask permission. It's almost like a child when it has its own life.
america europe laughing
The basics of acting are really better in America than in Europe. Just the basic "fake laugh" is impossible to get in France.
song vision fantasy
I discovered that a lot of the songs I like, they're fantasies, a vision of something, but you don't actually live there.
sex grief emotional
Well the themes for me were and remain sex and love and grief and death - the things that make us and undo us, create and destroy, how we breed and disappear and the emotional context that surrounds these events.
effort language situation
So I suppose poetry, language, the shaping of it, was and remains for me an effort to make sense out of essentially senseless situations.
deeds doing-you knows
... by doing you shall know What it is you have to do.
utterance way hobbies
But poetry is a way of language, it is not its subject or its maker's background or interests or hobbies or fixations. It is nearer to utterance than history.
writing sublime important
If I were assigned poems I suppose I'd write more of them but it is entirely voluntary and for the most part ignored in the market sense of the word so the language to me is most intimate, most important, most sublime and most satisfying when it gets done.
grief attachment pay
Grief is the tax we pay on our attachments...
love life giving
There's no easy way to do this. So do it right: weep, laugh, watch, pray, love, live, give thanks and praise; comfort, mend, honor, and remember.
