I Love Visual Gags And Gimmicks; I

I Don't Love Performing, Because It's Nerve-racking And It's Time - Consuming To Rehearse A Whole Set - And My Time Can Often Be Better Served Writing Music And Just Making It And Putting It Out.

I've Got Thick Skin And An Elastic Heart.

I Just Want To Make A Beautiful Film. I've Had It In My Head For So Long, So I Want To Try. Every Now And Again I Get Scared. And That's Not Really How I Operate In Songwriting Or As Sia The Artist, The Singer. I Don't Operate From A Place Of Fear. But This Is Such A New Area For Me. I Still Have Some Insecurity. So, Like, Once A Week I Get Washed From The Top Of My Skull Down To My Toes With This Vomitous Feeling Of Fear. I Think, "just Don't Do It. You Don't Have To Do It. You're Already A Singer And A Songwriter. Really, You Don't Have To Make A Movie.".

I Get To Sit At Home With The Dogs On The Sofa, Record In A Closet In The Office, Send Them Off And, If I'm Lucky, Make A Million Dollars.

Knowing Now What Goes Into Making A Successful Artist, It's Disheartening.
