I realized I was writing all the songs were about going somewhere else, start
a new life kind of this kind of stuff and I realized that that's where I called my
album Bye Bye Manchester because Manchester is really a city where people are
so proud to be Mancunians like Manchester people and really proud that
everyone wants to go out to live Manchester. You have to say bye bye to everything you
know to kind of of course a bit later come back and really be stronger about
where you are and everything so it's every song is about this fantasy to go
away and you only want to go away because you'll be able to come back. As my dream
was to go in Manchester and write an album, it was my dream to start because I'm a big fan of
Marasin and Smith and all this new wave Joe division and buscocks everything
there is some big witty all the time why do you really want to leave why are you
really sick of where you are so all the songs are talking about this and I don't
know I just realized that I completely say bye bye to my other life. I've really learned
everything and everything I know you know like all the confidence I have on stage
is from this experience I don't really think about it I'm like okay here I'm
sharing this unique moment with people and it's unique I needed to find my way
of communicating with these people that were coming to my concerts. I need to talk to them but I need to be true. I need to talk to them about music. I just don't want to sing other people's songs all the time.
Because now I have an English label they really work on the British audience and more and more I have British people in Australia. I was a proper Australian and I don't understand.
And they come and you know and just talk with me about my songs but they don't understand and it's just great because we're sharing something else.
That's what I want to do the next year is really take those songs and really chill with them and I'm writing now thinking about my next album already so I'm really this is a strong base for me.
This is a strong album and I want to be uptown and I can't wait to be up more.
