- A note for the Diamonds..
- I have read here and there that I will be 'apparently' releasing an extended version of 'The Family Jewels' at some point, with 'new songs'. This is bull. Over, closed & moved on from. I am not enamored by the idea of rehashing current works or adding songs to some 'deluxe' package or whatever. I am working on a new, seperate work which you will hear in 2011. I don't know if it will be in a traditional album format or as something else.
- I am forever fueled by what I see around me! So many thoughts to be though. I never really stopped writing after the first record. I feel like the life of 'artists' can be too defined by freedom. I believe that discipline is key. Even over talent. I would prefer to miss 10 years of parties for the prize of one new record. Hermit.
- It is interesting to see how new songs are taking shape.. I am inspired and dreaming again.
- ps- I am loving seeing the online communities of diamonds popping up everywhere. The way you work together is quite amazing. There seems to be a lot of kindness & support there.
- Shine hard, be honest, own your ambition and imagine the world hates you! That way, you will always do your best. x
