It\u2019s a pleasure for us of GAY BLOG BR to talk to you. Your song \u201cCome into My life\u201d was released 23 years ago and it was a great hit around the world, mainly in Brazil. It\u2019s amazing that people still remember and enjoy the song, don\u2019t you think?<\/strong><\/p>\n

This means a lot to me. While I was reading this question, I was shocked to hear it\u2019s been 23 years. I know rationally that it is so, but I absolutely do not perceive time the way most people do. For me it was yesterday. Not only because times goes by fast, just like everyone feels, but I particularly feel that I live in a timeless world. I don\u2019t see time as an arrow shooting forward, I perceive time as circular. When I was 16 I understood problems of old people, and I felt close to the deep questions of life and death, and as I grow older I become lighter and younger in spirit. I was a wise soul in a young body and now I feel I have a child\u2019s soul but I am a grown woman.<\/p>\n

Other songs like \u201cFreed From Desire\u201d and \u201cLet a Boy Cry\u201d, especially that last song, had a video clip with an LGBT atmosphere, right?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I can\u2019t say it myself, but a lot of journalists have spoken about \u201cLET A BOY CRY\u201d as the video PIONEERING the concept of QUEER. In the song I talked about how I didn\u2019t personally identify with neither the girls or the boys and how I felt like a unique being that cannot be put into either the blue or the pink box, \u201cI was a pirate, I sailed free\u201d.<\/p>\n
