'When I started singing, people started to listen. So I thought maybe if I just put the things that I want to say into my songs, then I can get my message across.' AlecBenjamin
Well, one thing people say about you is that you're very genuine and honest. What makes you feel so comfortable being so open and vulnerable?
Because I don't really know what else I would say, you know what I mean? But I like to talk about things and tell people how I feel, because to me that's stimulating. Also, I love music, but I like lyrics first. And I think I make music because I always felt like I was misunderstood in school. I always had opinions and things to say, but no one ever really wanted to listen to them. And when I started singing, people started to listen.
You do have a huge focus on storytelling, which is great. You also have this idealism that seems to resonate with a lot of people. And to an extent you've talked about struggling to hold onto that, in your song"Death of a Hero." Has fame or getting older changed any of that for you? Do you feel like your idealism is being challenged?
Yeah, a lot of my new music is way darker. I mean, I don't feel like I have any sense of fame. When I look at Justin Bieber I'm likefame, you know? I feel like I've gotten a certain level of recognition for my music, which is very cool and special, but I don't go home at night and look in the mirror and be like,"It's cool to be famous, man.". But the last six months have been a much darker time for me.
