My overnight success was really 15 years in the making. I'd been writing songs since I was 6 and playing in bands and performing since I was 14. ↗

I learn something not because I have to, but because I really want to. That's the same view I have for performing. I'm performing because I really want to, not because I have to bring bread back home. ↗

I'm kind of shy, and I think that I take that out by performing in front of a lot of people. That's how I get out my shyness. ↗

And because performing for a game involves real acting. The way they create a game is very similar now to how they create a film. I've always wanted to stretch my acting skills, and the timing being what it is, I couldn't say no. ↗

For one year I did go to Performing Arts School, and I had very weird friends. ↗

So I would dance and she would sing, and it was kind of a family thing. Performing was part of our world. ↗

Onstage I do all the stuff I'd never do in real life, like lashing out at people who make me mad or freaking out in a long bank lineup. Performing allows me to fulfill all the sicko fantasies I've ever had. ↗

I've always seen myself as one of those 'show people.' My earliest memories are wanting and needing to entertain people, like a gypsy traveler who goes from place to place, city to city, performing for audiences and reaching people. ↗

I'm not performing now. What I do now is listen to music all day long. Listening is very nourishing to me. I might go back to perform, I might make another record. I've got a record half finished. ↗

I don't see my dancing or acting as two separate things. I don't define them separately, so I can't say one has helped the other, It's all the same thing. More than anything I love being on stage and performing. ↗
