One woman I interviewed, Amanda Ghost, said, Let's not bullshit, there are no women at the top of the music business, and that is a serious problem. And I said, Yes! And I didn't shy away from saying that. But I still don't want to be in the firing line. I'm not clever or witty or brave enough to get into the political nitty-gritty with it

Image
I need some isolation, it's necessary to me, that's just who I am. I need to be left alone.
