I just want to keep making music, recording and trying different things. I don’t want to do the same thing all the time.
I’m always going to do that – record and make music.
I love slow music.
The music industry is a strange combination of having real and intangible assets: pop bands are brand names in themselves, and at a given stage in their careers their name alone can practically gaurantee hit records.
I genuinely don’t feel that anything that’s been written or said about me has overshadowed my music, and that’s the most important thing as far as I’m concerned.
I didn’t think it was fair to my music to label me as the daughter of somebody – I didn’t think it described me very well and I didn’t think it had anything to do with my music.
Maybe I’m genetically more inclined to music – but the music I make is so far removed from Indian classical music. I grew up in Texas!
I think maybe because of the kind of music I sing, people want to believe you’re a diva. They can’t believe after eight years, and eight albums, you’re still relatively sane. I feel like they almost want me to throw something at somebody.
A lot of my music is slow and subtle. The subtly is what I enjoy about making music.
You’re now getting a new breed of people like Il Divo and Andrea Bocelli and I think that’s why people feel less intimidated by classical music than they once did.
