“[The] visual element is a very important way to express yourself. I mean, that was one of the things I thought was helpful, for example, with being really involved in the videos. If people watched and listened at the same time, they’d understand the nature of the song quicker. There does exist a visual representation of every music; inside you know what it looks like, and it’s better, truer to send it away from you in the right packing [sic] or the outfit.”
