The reason that makes me consider presenting myself as the grim reaper is that there are loads of small hooded characters in the film, so I would be one of them.

In the performance at the cultural centre I had already given up the idea of wearing the costume precisely because of what you said, it would make it less serious. It would be a wrong, taking into account that there's a discussion afterards. But I would like to give the costume a try if I have...

That is really interesting. I will give it a try. In the meantime I am booking a small show at the local curtural centre with a discussion about suicide afterwards. I also expect to film the whole thing this time.

I think most people don't take into account other people's opinions when they make music. You do what you want and are able to do and, like you said, sometimes it just happens that a lot of people like it. I agree to some extent to what you say that those elements together may seem forced...

I just did one this afternoon!

This was the first time I performed live and I'm sure that the next time I will be more convincing and be more at ease to try different ways of presenting myself. I thought about wearing black make up around my eyes, creepy clothes, but I decided to present myself closer to what I am normally...

There really is a market for everything:

Andrushkiwt: That's true for over 90% of people. I think that only a handful of musicians in the world can expect to have their music scrutinized like that. I don't hear much music, but when I hear something that intrigues me, I normally search more music from the person that made it. Maybe...

Hi Nola. It wasn't my intention at all to be pretentious, although I can see that the performance can be perceived as such. It's not a subject to be treated lightly. I was hoping that because it's an unusual subject, a lot of people would be interested. I guess I was wrong. This was the first...

Thanks for the honest criticism Pinky. The youtube video has english subtitles. I don't care much about the film, it hardly relates to the music, so I agree with you, it just makes the performance odd. On the other hand, it's the film that allows me to book performances because it's part of...

Thanks. I didn't know about "spoken word" crowds. I will look into that.

I know that this is as far from mainstream as possible, but I'm sure there's an audience for this kind of stuff... I just don't know what audience is it and even less how to get to them. Any help to point me in the right direction is very welcomed.

I performed it live and made a video out of it. I'm ok about it, considering it's my first experience with a live performance.

I have been avoiding pointing a camera at myself during a rehearsal... but I will have to do it to see if I'm overdoing it. Do you think she's overdoing it? :) I don't. In fact I have the feeling she's restraining herself.

I got my first singing lesson today. Apparently I'm doing it all wrong. My main concern was pitch, but she said that was ok. I'm too "breathy", I move my head and neck too much, I make too many facial expressions. Although all that is true, I'm not sure I want to change it. On top of that...
