I love how engaged the interviewer is with Mike. It feels like an intimate conversation. It's all very natural and comfortable.

“You’re not broken, even if a lot of messed up things have happened to you” ❤️❤️ Also, Liz Phair was huge for me, too, when I was a teen!

@ricci777 4 года назад

this is great. as a hetero man who was "on the outside" for other reasons, I find a lot of wisdom here. I like how Mike says "you just dont care anymore" My favorite quote is TS Eliot "teach us to care, and not to care"

@arkoobi 2 года назад

This interview was really well conducted and felt truly organic. Every minute was delightful. I ended up with a refined musical taste and a stronger love for humanity.

@juliettedemaso7588 5 лет назад

We need to move out of the suburbs and back into the city.. god am I feeling that. Never more strongly have I felt so squeezed out of a location. So unwelcome and other and suffocated. So many Years of trying to make it here, raising kids here, and now for it to have come to a sense of quits... yeah. My kids and I need the city. Need. I hope you find your place too...

@SydneyAshton-pc2gd 5 месяцев назад

Hey Mike, do you know that your song "Die for you" was used in Netflix Wentworth when a woman was killed?? It's the 1st time I heard of you or the song..I cried as the emotion was so strong when a belived inmate was dying.

A musical genius and brilliant live....We are blessed because of him and his musical freedom.The YOU in you is brilliant.

Love it! good interview, I get to understand this amazing artist and see him vulnerable yet at the same time empowered by his art, inspires me to create more stuff of my own. Thanks!

I listen and watch the Die 4 u video every other day. The video is beautiful. Mike is beautiful. The colliding voices are beautiful. So happy this interview is out!! I just listen to mike whenever I can and he helped me get thorough and currently go though the levels of everyday life. ❤️❤️🏳️‍🌈

@JsRf13 6 лет назад

I kinda agree; I think a nice balance of insightful questions is necessary as well as having some light-hearted questions peppered throughout to relieve some of the emotional build-up. :)
