A number one record is cool. That’s kinda why I’m doing ‘Obsession’. I mean, I like ‘Obsession’ – it’s a really good pop song, but it’s extremely pop. That wasn’t exactly what my goal was… But I’m glad that ‘One’ came out before that so people know that I can still do other stuff. I wanna be capable of doing all different types of music… but I’m glad that I get to do something like ‘Obsession’. I’m really lucky… At first I was really bitter about it, because I wanted my songs to be on my record, so it was a bit hard for me. I appreciate it and I understand that I have to compromise with the people who are distributing me and making it possible for me to have my own music out.
I still very much stand behind ‘Obsession’… ‘Obsession’ is a funny thing; It might be my biggest song ever. It’s sad when I think of it that way though, coz I always wanted it to be my song that was the biggest, but I like it very much – it’s really catchy and everything.
Doing a record like that just opens doors to letting me start other projects to and being able to come out with my own music. I guess when you have your name on the radio it kinda helps or something, but I like other stuff. Lady GaGa’s “Just Dance” was completely different than “Alejandro” or something, it’s like a 360 or something you know, and over time she started coming out with [her own stuff].
