When I Was 10, My Parents Really

I'm A Fan Of The Strokes, So My Big Fantasy Was That One Day I Would Get To Sing With Them.

I Toured For 13 Years, And It Was Very Lonely, And It Was Hard Work. I'm Not Afraid Of Hard Work, Especially If It's For Stuff That I Enjoy. But I Actually Don't Think You Could Name One Artist Who Enjoys Promo Or Touring After The First Three To Six Months Of An Album Cycle.

I Think That It Depends What You Mean By Successful. If You Mean 'make Money' You Need To Be Part Of The Machine Unless You're One Of Those Superhuman People Who Can Do Everything By Yourself, And Have Workaholic Tendencies And Really Good Advisers And A Good Investor.

I'm Trying To Work Out A Way To Be A Singer And To Create Cool Content. I'm Willing To Do That As An Entertainer. But I'm Not Willing To Give Up My Actual Self. And The Way The System Is Built Up, There'll Be A Backlash Soon. Just Recently Some People Published 11 Photos Of Sia's Face. It's A Bummer For Me Because It's Going To Elevate My Profile And Make Me More Recognizable. But I Don't Look The Same As I Did When I Used To Have My Photo Taken. Music Is For Your Ears, Not Your Eyes, Right? But Film Is For Your Eyes, And I Would Like To Give You Something.

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.
