recently had the honor of being featured on hong kong's legendary 號外City Magazine. photo and interview was done by my photographer friend mario chui. i’ve been reading a lot recently, including my friend zoe suen’s newletter. it’s made me miss writing a lot, and translating a transcription of my own interview probably doesn’t count as writing, but it’ll make me feel good to type a bunch of words and hit publish, so this one’s for me. i appreciate whoever is reading this and whoever’s subscribed to my newsletter. there’s enough spam in your inbox, i’m sure.
"in fact, it bothers me sometimes when i’m with other people and a song comes on that’s really important to me, and the people i’m with don’t react to it the way i’d like them to. it’s psychotic and unfair but these situations make me pissed. sometimes i feel possessive of songs too. don’t you feel sometimes, that song was obviously made for me and only me?"
I have stopped listening to your songs with other people around for this exact reason.
