From the Get Go - At the End of This Cigarette

theglasschild: Before I decided to start my own record label, release my first EP and do everything on my own, I went to some meetings with “industry experts”, labels and managers. I didn’t know a lot about the business-part, or what it takes to get your music out. All I knew was that I had all those thoughts and unspoken words within me that I needed to tell. All those meetings, talks and dinners ended the same - a bold guy in costume telling me to dress more sexy, act more mature and write more simple pop-songs. Basically change so that it fits into their little box. He told me how I could be on all the covers and in all the big magazine, and when I asked how, he said ‘because we have the money and we can pay for your success’. I still remember that choking panic in my chest when I mumbled that that’s not me and that I believe in music and that if I write clear and loud enough about what I feel than maybe other people out there will hear me and understand and maybe even let me know that I’m not alone in feeling those things. I rambled the whole thing about being true to myself, doing things in my way and not compromising myself, and then the bold guy called me ‘honey’ and something about being immature and not knowing the business, and then I ran out with an ocean of choking tears in my throat, promising myself to never be in contact with those people again. Those people who don’t care about music anymore, who don’t know how music can change a life, and has saved mine.

I decided after a couple of those meetings, that until the last breath of my life, I would live to prove them wrong. To prove to them that I can do this on my own without their money. That I will show the world that music can still connect and change lives, without a mainstream company that pays for it. That is what makes me keep pushing some days, when I doubt myself, that I will never let them win. I will never sit down and admit that they were right.

If each and everyone of you liked my facebook-page, I would have more likes than a lot of major-acts that has a label paying for each and everyone of their likes. Let’s give the finger to the industry and show them that we can do this without them, because music and art has nothing to do with money or status. Music is above that. http://www.facebook.com/theglasschild

Reblog if you’re with me!

“You can cease my heartbeat,
You can strike ‘til I bleed,
You can pull the trigger, bring me down to my knees,
But you can’t take the music outta me.”

I can genuinely hear my life ticking away right now… damn that’s depressing..

“Jane Goodall’s story of a young girl who loved animals and dreamed of going to Africa and who found a way of making that dream come true—is also one of the great scientific sagas.” [more]

As I claw my way back up your nails,
And they clasp on to your dying fingers.
I will pull away from everything,
With your name on my arm like a trophy!

Let’s see someone top that! 1000 PLAYS! This is some hardcore commitment… I’m proud of it though!

You should check this out! It’s absolutely amazing, as is the rest of the “This Is How Ghosts Are Made” EP :) 

So it has come to my attention that the town I grew up in for 18 years is very slowly dying.

£1000’s of pounds of damage caused in vandalism every week - on the rise,

Creepy perverts going to court of pornographic images - on the rise,

Robberies - on the rise,

Deaths - on the rise,

There’s an endless amount of tragedy in that town.. and whilst it is all very bad and is contributing to the downfall, the worst thing is that amidst all this terrible stuff, the town is still inhabited by self-centred bastards.

For example, the people causing £1000’s of damage to vehicles out of spite,

teenagers who turn a tragic accident (not tragic enough if you ask me!) into some kind of massive publicity boost and try and get as much attention on themselves as possible whilst there’s also:

Rape,

Murder,

Elderly people unable to afford their heating and thus, dying,

People who suffer in silence,

I could go on and on and on but the main point right here is that Hinckley is dying and if my parents leave it, I am never coming back.

So guys (all 1 of you that follow me ;) ) 

Things are finally looking up! I’m finally past my last relationship, I’ve just got a job interview that I’m pretty confident I will ace, I have some decent friends, I’ve put a deposit down on a flat and I’m starting to cheer up!

Working on the band again too! I might post some lyrics up here from time to time.. so you can totally look forward to that? :P 

Every Avenue also got it wrong though:

“The lovers that leave us will always hold a place.” 

Hell no, fuck that girl. 

Every Avenue  got it damn right..

Charlotte Eriksson has a good music taste it would seem ;)

You are calm and reposed
Let your beauty unfold
Pale white, like the skin stretched over your bones
Spring keeps you ever close
You are second-hand smoke
You are so fragile and thin, standing trial for your sins
Holding on to yourself the best you can
You are the smell before rain
You are the blood in my veins

We’re two souls, entangled.
But we’re too strong, too strong.
‘Cause I want what you want,
You just give me something I need.
