, I have in mind to do a live show based on Prince’s stuff, that will be down the road a little. It won’t happen for while.
I have no regrets and wouldn’t change a thing. I’m genuinely surprised I’m still here. It happened gradually for me, I just like myself.
I think people are less demanding from an artist, less demanding from what they do. People pay a big ticket price to see a singer just move their lips in sync to a track.
