I don't think I thought I was going to go into music, and I don't think it hit me until I was 13 or 14, and then I was gone. Just like that. At that point, there was nothing else that could keep my attention.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I didn't start playing music really until I was 18/19, so it was a relatively new thing. I didn't play much music in school.
Music became my focus. At 13, I was jamming with my mates. At 15, I was playing clubs.
I sort of feel like music saved my life when I was young. This is the one thing that I knew I was good at.
I don't even know what made me start wanting to do music. It just... happened. Because I sat in my basement all the time, and music was my best friend, and I just wanted to be a part of it.
When I turned 14, I became very obsessed with writing songs, and it took over my existence.
When I was a preteen, I got into singing, and became really obsessed with it. But then, of course, that didn't work out.
I was crazy for music as a high school kid and a college kid.
It wasn't until I was about 17 or 18 years old that I got into music.
I didn't even listen to any music until I was 19, really. I just wanted to be famous. But I didn't say it to anyone because I was really embarrassed at the thought.
But I did go to music really early on, even when I was 4 or 5, I was responding to music probably in ways other kids were not.
