But I always think as an artist, I like to create things that other people might not have the privilege, the time, the ability, the know-how to put into words for themselves.
So say, for example, something like cellophane.
I went through something and then I wrote the song Cellophane with a couple of wonderful collaborators.
And then that has spelt out the words for many people that have gone through a breakup.
And that's the type of fan interaction that I really love.
And that's the type of fan interaction that spurs me to make another version of that song or to explore that feeling further the same way that I was saying when I performed You Sex Were Alive, it encouraged me to make
Afterglow.
I was very inspired by the reaction to make Afterglow and I was also very inspired on Afterglow to produce so much more myself and play so many more instruments myself and because Eusexua for me was such a well-rounded piece of work that I was so proud of that I created, in Afterglow I wanted to
I don't know, like deconstruct everything that I'd learned, like deconstruct the beats, play more instruments, use my voice in a different way, subvert the clarity of Eusexua into a hazy, gauzy, muffled, kind of wavy after-party of Afterglow.
But that wouldn't have happened if the fans hadn't have given me permission and like authority also to do.
It was really a collaboration.
Yeah, and then it was a conversation.
No, no, I do, but it's the goalposts keep on changing of what you have to do to be an artist.
A hundred percent.
My point is, every time you do an album, the goalposts of what you have to do change.
So, for example, this era...
Videoed podcasts, really important.
This era, doing TikToks with other influences, really important.
When I first started, you would do a Fader interview and a Pitchfork interview on a phoner.
When I first started making music, you would go to your record label, you'd sit there for two days, you'd do phoners with Pitchfork, The Guardian, Fader, a couple of others.
