When you're around me and really see that all I do is live and breathe for my work, it's not strange, it's just Gaga.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I do my job like I breathe.
What keeps me interested is that I have to do it. It's like people wake up and they have to breathe; I have to write songs; I have to make music. That's like eating or breathing to me. It's that simple.
I get to pretend I'm flying into space, and hang out with my friends. That's what I do for a living.
I like living, breathing better than working... Each second, each breath is a work which is inscribed nowhere, which is neither visual nor cerebral. It's a kind of constant euphoria.
It is the passion inside me that means I keep going. I love what I do, and I think I am lucky to do it. When I am riding a quiet country road, I hear the birds singing and think, 'I am in my office now.'
I like finishing a movie and having this living, breathing thing.
The very air in which you live is an inspiration.
I suppose I had my rock star fantasies while I was singing into my hairbrush in the bathroom mirror, but I never really consciously said, 'OK, this is what I'm going to do for a living and I'm going to be Weird Al.'
I just find it fascinating, like everybody, to be in a different life. It's an escape.
Everywhere I go, I feel strange.
