Music helps me tell my story. That's where I can really be heard. But there's so much focus on the things that aren't music.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Music is a job, but I figured out ways to get my mind into a place where I could be creative. I actually discovered meditation. It enabled me to clear my mind of all the drama and focus on the music.
I feel like everything I write about is a gift I need to share because there is somebody out there going through a similar thing that might need to hear it. I know music helped me a lot. And still does.
I sort of look at music as helping me get through situations.
Music is there to enrich your life and make you aware of things in a slightly different way.
Music is my therapy and my straitjacket. Music keeps me sane and keeps my mind on something. It's fragile up there.
Music is hugely important to me.
Music is a vital part of my life, and it has been since I was a kid. It helped me find my identity as a person, it helped me find my identity as an artist, and it helped me get in touch with emotions that I didn't know I had.
Music is a lens through which to see who we are. Every phrase of every piece of music is trying to tell a story.
If I were to explore music, I'd want to just focus on that and make that my priority.
I don't profess to have music as my big wheel and there are a number of other things as important to me apart from music. Theatre and mime, for instance.
