I am a very sensitive person, very impulsive and emotional.
I've just put my heart and soul in a song and need at least a week to recover.
The music comes first. When Geoff has made something the inspiration comes automatically. His music is very expressive. But still is is a very difficult process: I have to add something to his music, not push it away. It has to be equal, and I find that very difficult.
You feel the music needs something but you don't know what. So you start searching, fitting, measuring, trying. Every time you try another angle. And sometimes that's frustrating, especially if you don't come up with something for three days.
I still don't like doing interviews. I hardly do any... I hope this will be the last one for a long while.
