16
00:00:57,760 --> 00:00:59,760
Speaker 2: And I think you're confident. From some of the stuff

17
00:00:59,760 --> 00:01:01,840
Speaker 2: that I've read and scene you talk about it, it seems

18
00:01:01,880 --> 00:01:04,720
Speaker 2: like you feel as if you know this is your

19
00:01:04,760 --> 00:01:05,760
Speaker 2: really Hitney straps.

20
00:01:06,160 --> 00:01:06,440
Speaker 3: Yeah.

21
00:01:06,600 --> 00:01:10,080
Speaker 4: I think, yeah, you know, it takes like a whole album.

22
00:01:10,160 --> 00:01:12,639
Speaker 4: I think, like to really know what you're doing, because

23
00:01:12,720 --> 00:01:15,840
Speaker 4: like I mean, you never really know what you're doing.

24
00:01:15,959 --> 00:01:19,440
Speaker 4: And I mean, after going through Love Monster, I was

25
00:01:19,440 --> 00:01:22,560
Speaker 4: thrown like a lot of artists are. And now I

26
00:01:22,680 --> 00:01:24,760
Speaker 4: kind of know who I am and what I want

27
00:01:24,800 --> 00:01:27,560
Speaker 4: to do and how to make a good record. And

28
00:01:27,640 --> 00:01:30,600
Speaker 4: I guess I didn't really stop writing like while I

29
00:01:30,680 --> 00:01:34,160
Speaker 4: was touring, and I kind of.

30
00:01:34,520 --> 00:01:36,399
Speaker 3: Got to get a lot of stuff out and off

31
00:01:36,440 --> 00:01:36,839
Speaker 3: my chest.

32
00:01:37,600 --> 00:01:39,440
Speaker 2: That's a good thing, right, rather than having that huge

33
00:01:39,480 --> 00:01:41,920
Speaker 2: break afterwards and going like, oh I need to reinvent

34
00:01:41,959 --> 00:01:43,600
Speaker 2: myself and create this whole new thing.

35
00:01:43,959 --> 00:01:46,199
Speaker 3: Was it was sort of flowing process for you.

36
00:01:46,280 --> 00:01:49,040
Speaker 4: Well, yeah, and I think people do think that. People

37
00:01:49,160 --> 00:01:52,560
Speaker 4: And when I'm gone, like when I'm not in cycle

38
00:01:52,640 --> 00:01:54,800
Speaker 4: and having a song on radio.

39
00:01:54,520 --> 00:01:55,960
Speaker 3: It doesn't mean I'm not working.

40
00:01:56,320 --> 00:01:59,760
Speaker 4: Takes you know, this one had to be two years,

41
00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:03,200
Speaker 4: I guess, just to make sure that it was, you know,

42
00:02:03,240 --> 00:02:06,120
Speaker 4: another level up from Love Monster, and it just takes time.

43
00:02:06,320 --> 00:02:08,359
Speaker 5: So not only was the first album to jump into

44
00:02:08,400 --> 00:02:10,880
Speaker 5: the deep end then, Amy, but also in your life

45
00:02:10,880 --> 00:02:13,760
Speaker 5: outside of music, you jumping in the deep end. I'm

46
00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:16,280
Speaker 5: ready here that you recently got into a cage with

47
00:02:16,480 --> 00:02:19,000
Speaker 5: Sharks I did. Can you talk us through that?

51
00:02:28,600 --> 00:02:32,000
Speaker 3: Amy, Well, it's really awesome.

52
00:02:32,040 --> 00:02:36,040

54
00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:42,360

55
00:02:42,360 --> 00:02:46,560
Speaker 4: this adventure traveling around the world, like swimming with different

56
00:02:46,680 --> 00:02:49,760
Speaker 4: species of sharks, and you know, he reached out to

57
00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:51,640
Speaker 4: me and said, I know, like you have this fear

58
00:02:51,680 --> 00:02:53,680
Speaker 4: of sharks. I'd love to talk to you more about it,

62
00:03:01,840 --> 00:03:03,840
Speaker 3: I was like dipped out. I would love to think.

63
00:03:03,639 --> 00:03:06,640
Speaker 4: That I could do this, so you know, and and

64
00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:09,120
Speaker 4: I had that feeling like once I did it and

65
00:03:09,160 --> 00:03:10,720
Speaker 4: I got in that cage, and I mean, I.

66
00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:12,959
Speaker 3: Could talk to you guys about this for hours, but.

67
00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:15,799

82
00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:57,600
Speaker 2: I actually wanted to ask you how do you maintain

83
00:03:57,680 --> 00:04:02,040
Speaker 2: your integrity as a vidual that you don't want that

84
00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:04,480
Speaker 2: sort of thing to be attached to who you are?

85
00:04:05,040 --> 00:04:07,040
Speaker 2: And I'll throw in I'll throw in a little bit

86
00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:09,200
Speaker 2: of a kickstart for you. I heard the Desert Island

87
00:04:09,240 --> 00:04:12,480
Speaker 2: Discs podcast on BBC with Daniel Radcliffe the other day

88
00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:18,520
Speaker 2: and he was fascinating person actually, who said the number

89
00:04:18,520 --> 00:04:21,599
Speaker 2: one piece of advice he had was that he tries

90
00:04:21,680 --> 00:04:25,479
Speaker 2: to shake everyone's hand before they can shake his hand

91
00:04:25,880 --> 00:04:30,479
Speaker 2: and introduce himself as Daniel, before they get to say

92
00:04:30,480 --> 00:04:34,200
Speaker 2: anything about him, because it's so important for him to

93
00:04:34,440 --> 00:04:38,760
Speaker 2: prove to people that he's an individual outside of you know,

94
00:04:38,920 --> 00:04:41,960
Speaker 2: obviously Harry Potter, but everything else he's done now and

95
00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:44,440
Speaker 2: that's painful for him, but it's literally the number one

96
00:04:44,440 --> 00:04:46,760
Speaker 2: thing that gets him going through the day. He needs

97
00:04:46,800 --> 00:04:49,159
Speaker 2: to prove to people that is an individual do you

98
00:04:49,240 --> 00:04:52,119
Speaker 2: have Do you feel the same burden or same curse

99
00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:55,599
Speaker 2: as this thing sort of snowballs and becomes more and

100
00:04:55,680 --> 00:04:57,520
Speaker 2: more it is.

101
00:04:57,960 --> 00:05:01,599
Speaker 4: It's a really strange dynamic because I've tried to break

102
00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:05,080
Speaker 4: it down with my friends even like, like.

103
00:05:05,600 --> 00:05:07,120
Speaker 3: You know, because I mean, I didn't.

104
00:05:07,200 --> 00:05:11,440
Speaker 4: It's not like I've been Amy Shark since Conceptional, since

105
00:05:11,480 --> 00:05:13,719
Speaker 4: i was really young, even like I was like, you know, thirty,

106
00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:16,720
Speaker 4: So it's I've had I've had all these years of.

107
00:05:17,080 --> 00:05:17,920
Speaker 3: Just being Amy.

108
00:05:18,320 --> 00:05:22,760
Speaker 4: So I'm not about to become an egotistical dick now.

109
00:05:22,680 --> 00:05:23,880
Speaker 3: Like you know what I mean. Like it's like that

110
00:05:23,880 --> 00:05:25,400
Speaker 3: would be weird.

111
00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:28,560
Speaker 2: You've got license to though. I mean, you could just

112
00:05:28,640 --> 00:05:30,400
Speaker 2: be a bitch. You could just turn it on and

113
00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:32,880
Speaker 2: everybody be like, yeah, well she's big now. I mean,

114
00:05:32,960 --> 00:05:34,440
Speaker 2: that's you get out of jail free card.

115
00:05:35,440 --> 00:05:37,479
Speaker 4: It's like I say to people all the time, like

116
00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:39,239
Speaker 4: I'm not acting different.

117
00:05:39,320 --> 00:05:42,760
Speaker 3: I'm not different. I'm the same person. But because you

118
00:05:42,800 --> 00:05:45,280
Speaker 3: see me on TV and you now him my songs

119
00:05:45,320 --> 00:05:49,400
Speaker 3: and you have younger kids who like like my music, It's.

120
00:05:49,200 --> 00:05:52,000
Speaker 4: Like, now you're acting weird and because you're acting with

121
00:05:52,160 --> 00:05:55,560
Speaker 4: that forced me to act different, which is a weird

122
00:05:55,680 --> 00:05:57,240
Speaker 4: cycle when you think about it.

123
00:05:57,360 --> 00:06:00,200
Speaker 5: That's so funny, you know, with our experience with that. Yeah,

124
00:06:00,240 --> 00:06:02,599
Speaker 5: you're right. It's the perception of I mean the Arias

125
00:06:02,600 --> 00:06:05,560
Speaker 5: twenty eighteen, twenty eighteen, twenty nineteen, twenty eighteen, where you

126
00:06:05,600 --> 00:06:07,800
Speaker 5: were really the bell of the ball, took home all

127
00:06:07,800 --> 00:06:10,200
Speaker 5: the awards and whatnot. I was pretty drunk and I

128
00:06:10,279 --> 00:06:12,120
Speaker 5: remember seeing you at the after party, and you're right,

129
00:06:12,120 --> 00:06:14,200
Speaker 5: it's perception. It's going like, oh, she won't want to

130
00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:15,880
Speaker 5: talk to me, like you know, it's Amy Shark. There's

131
00:06:15,920 --> 00:06:17,719
Speaker 5: no way that she wants to spend time talking to

132
00:06:17,760 --> 00:06:18,800
Speaker 5: me as soon as you.

133
00:06:19,640 --> 00:06:20,159
Speaker 2: And we did.

134
00:06:20,320 --> 00:06:22,039
Speaker 5: You gave me all the time of the night, which

135
00:06:22,040 --> 00:06:23,920
Speaker 5: is probably quite frustrating a few hours, and we also

136
00:06:23,960 --> 00:06:24,359
Speaker 5: balled up.

137
00:06:24,360 --> 00:06:25,719
Speaker 2: Your husband Shane.

138
00:06:26,960 --> 00:06:27,480
Speaker 4: Was there as well.

139
00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:31,039
Speaker 5: I don't remember, but you're so right, Amy. It is

140
00:06:31,040 --> 00:06:33,600
Speaker 5: the perception of people thinking, oh, that's that's Amy Shark.

141
00:06:33,680 --> 00:06:35,040
Speaker 5: She won't want to do that, but you are just

142
00:06:35,080 --> 00:06:35,760
Speaker 5: a normal person.

143
00:06:35,880 --> 00:06:36,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, so good to

144
00:06:36,720 --> 00:06:40,320
Speaker 2: Catch up and you might have a great afternoons podcasting

145
00:06:40,720 --> 00:06:41,200
Speaker 2: now
