Hey, you know, I am a terrible musician. I'm really good at singing, but I'm not kidding when I say listening to me play the piano is painful, painful, painful. The fact that you can play a generous handful of instruments is incredibly impressive to me. (And I'm not just saying that as, like, a way to tell you to feel more confident about your abilities, even if you probably should--I honestly think it's fucking awesome.) I hate that vicious cycle (mine goes: I don't write more songs because I don't make time to, but I don't make time to because I don't think they're good enough, but they won't be good enough until I make time to.)

But I also sort of think a lot of musicians in actual bands are actually pretty bad at their instruments, and I know women are held to a higher standard, but sometimes it's okay to suck. (My mantra at the moment, let me show you it.

That's fucking awesome, and you should never stop. Also, just so you know? If you lived in Stockholm, I would tell you that we should make some music.
