why do people assume that everything goes as planned and i have control over everything? if I had control over everything, I wouldn't be here asking "why do people assume that everything goes as planned and i have control over everything?"


to kyanlovesmax,

Alright, I'll ducking tell you why I released this album. Because I was under a contract, and I was under a contract because I was disillusioned into thinking that this contract would net me the opportunity to make the music that I'd actually want to make. Now, one who still lives in his mother's basement will so incline to think that the world is black and white, but more often than not, that isn't the case. I do work with other human beings and people that I care about, including my old man, so it's hard to just say "No, no, no" to things that I disagree with, because they, too, have to deal with other people in the end. However, all of this does not limit me from giving my opinion of it when asked, or when bothered with.

This page is a festouverture page, not a Joanna Wang page, which I think I've made very clearly. This page was made waaaay before the debut. And I had no intention of letting those two cross. But alas, the album comments have gotten too much and I thought it was best to just shut it down. I only kept my youtube going for the people that stuck around for music.

And why don't you give a single example of when I "swore at fans who liked 'Start From Here'" as the article so stated?

I have never, ever directed so quoted "Fxxking" or "Fxxk you" on anyone who has ever even complimented "Start From Here."

And in fact, thank you for posting this article, because I thought it was rather well written. Though some things that the reporter read on my youtube must've been lost in translation, and dramatized I'm sure for the effect of an article, after all, under today's "entertainment section," somethings were factual, and I liked that. Like when she quoted the "how I'm responsible for the words that come out of my mouth, therefore I don't lie" bit. However, I am not responsible for the words that didn't come out of my mouth.

So there ya go, since you asked "can you ducking tell me why??I wondering???????"

Sincerely not anyone's,

festouverture.

i miss your tunes
your version of paul mccartney's "that would be something" was awesome
i know what happened cant have been easy or fun, but there's so many folks out there that enjoyed your music, what about them?
as a musician, i dont believe we make music for ourselves, atleast not exclusively. its for whoever wants to listen, too.
thats the joy of music, and not just music - i would venture to say life, too: sharing.

hope to see you back on here sometime, but in any case: take care, be well and godspeed.

Went to see Newtokyoterror concert tonite, tks for taking me thru your music journey thru 6 chapters of songs and I love the backdrop and the backside portraits you took in HK. Your unique music style is still in incubation stage. Can't wait to see u metaphorsising into something more....you do have a powerful and soothing voice. Still passionate and show a bit of anger in your music...that could be interesting and worth waiting for. Good luck w your creative pieces and enjoy the music journey. Luv fr Stitch
