“I never want to listen to the songs in front of people close to me. There's an emotional honesty in that place where it's not earnest but it's vulnerable.” PeopleWantSongFrontsHonestyEmotionalVulnerableEarnestEmotional Honesty Author:Yannis Philippakis
“If you can express something in the simplest way possible, I think there's something noble in that. It's easy to flesh stuff out and get all purple with it, being cryptic and wearing masks... I think it's a bit adolescent. I wanted to write in a way that was vulnerable. I wanted to have courage in stripping back the opaque stuff so it was just raw. I like lyrics that are a lifeline, that have a purpose to them and are not just meandering around in a masturbatory way. They cut the page.” ThinkingWritingPurposeEasyCuttingVulnerableMaskHave Courage Author:Yannis Philippakis
