music for herself

I make music for myself and at the time I’m making it, I’m really not thinking about commercial appeal or mass acceptance. That’s the only way to keep developing. I hate to repeat myself and the only moments in my life when I have, like on the second Sugarcubes record, have always happened because I’ve been trying to please other people. When you’re not doing it for your own satisfaction but for someone else, you go into service mode
