When I was 25, Abba was formed. After Abba I made three solo albums. Maybe I have been productive enough.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
The band projects just took natural priority. I didn't really have a solo career, just wanted to share the music in another way and to learn more about writing, recording, etcetera.
I did a lot of writing for a lot of different kinds of bands that I was in and out of during those five years and that left me with a little body of songs that I liked better when I played alone, so I ended up going out solo and very soon made my first album.
I feel like I'm only in the beginning of my career. I've only made five albums. It's not a lot.
I started in a band called 'Timbiriche', we toured the world when I was 8; I have 23 albums.
I think ABBA have a pure joy to their music and that's what makes them extraordinary.
I think I've grown a lot in the last few years, and I needed to express myself as an artist on this. It wasn't necessarily about going in and making an album chocked full of hit singles... there were a lot of things I did out of the joy and the want to do it.
I never envisioned myself as a solo artist; I was always part of a band.
I do listen to Abba. And a lot of '80s and '90s pop music.
I didn't make a solo album until the year 2000.
Wherever I went, crowds appeared again, and I started making solo albums for the first time in my career.
