******Skye Sweetnam给歌迷的信(不是特别长)********* Hey guys and dolls! That "Skye is HERE" topic was getting really long! So if you have any questions about my music or writing I'll address it here for now. Starting with "Fallen Through"The general meaning is my trust in things falling through. It sounds like a relationship song and that's because most people can relate to that more than other situations. I'm finding that in the boy, girl relationship department I've related to that song more after I wrote it. I was actually kinda frustrated with the plans for my career falling though at the point when I wrote it. I had finished most of my album when I was signed. I had the impression that nothing would be changed to my album after I got my record deal. I wrote "Number One" "Fallen Through" "Tangled Up In Me" and "I Don't Care" all after I was signed and in that order. "Billy S." was my first single released off the "How To Deal" soundtrack. Originally it was supposed to be the first single to launch the album off of too. There was going to be a huge marketing push with that song on the movie trailers etc. in a couple words that is what "Fell Though." The movie and the single didn't do as well as the people on my end thought it would. For a while it felt like my career was going nowhere. So Capitol helped me hook up with the other producers, and writers of "Number One". Although looking back on it "Number One" is one of my favourite songs on the album, I was disappointed that my good friend, writer producer and musician James wasn't going to be involved. So in a scramble to make a so called "hit" we wrote "Fallen Through" in his basement studio where most of the album was made. It's just an example of how a negative feeling can be turned into a positive thing. Never give up hope!
Skye Sweetnam Interview Interview by MusicPhase.comInterviewed by Steve Taddei, Friday September 24th 2004transcribed by Jen."..." or "[...]" means I've cut irrelevant parts out or I couldn't figure out what was said"(?) means I'm guessing so check the audio if you want to figure it out yourselfSkye: Hi.MP: Hey, how are you doing?Skye: Good.MP: ...The first thing I was wondering well actually I saw your appearance on Radio Free Roscoe -Skye: Ok.MP: - It's kind of one of my guilty little pleasures -Skye: [laughs]MP: - but is that something you just did as a one time thing or do you consider yourself as someone who might end up going into acting as well?Skye: Um, well it kind of came around rather quickly, just because I got to sing the theme song and I'm kind of in that Radio Free Roscoe world, and they just asked me if I'd like to kind of guest star. So, that came really kind of quick, but acting is something I've done all my life. I did a lot of musical theatre growing up - my kind of guilty pleasure -MP: [laughs]Skye: - and then I went to high school for drama in another school. So it's been a part of my life, and it's kind of cool to finally get to that experience of finally doing something professional in acting.But right now singing is definitely my focus, even though film making and making my own dvds are ongoing projects for me. I think acting is something that I want to make sure that, if I do make that transition, I want to make sure that it's really dramatic(?), and put my energy into acting, you know, fully instead of trying to balance a whole lot things at once - 'cause I really don't want to become one of those singer-trying-to-be-actor-but-didn't-really-work kind of thing.MP: YeahSkye: I want to make sure that the roles that I pick are ones that I'm in love with and that I can really put my heart in towards it.MP: Right, that makes sense enough. So on top of you don't want to become that kind of person that just ends up doing acting and doing that, are you also afraid of becoming that girl-rocker cliche or do you think you've avoided that?Skye: Um, I think that nowadays a lot of people tend to put a lot of labels on things and I think I kind of sum that up in my song - Hypocrite, on my album. And it's just kind of a lot of different labels I think people and the media are going to try to put on me just because of my age and my bio[graphy] and, you know, that fact that I'm a young girl from Canada and that kind of thing. And the main message of the song is that no matter what people are going to say, I'm going to do what I want to no matter what.And I think people, once they really get to know me and get to know my music and are willing to stick around a little more and instead of looking at what's on the surface and assuming a lot of the things that a lot people do assume when a young girl comes out with a kind of pop/rock album, and they start looking at what I'm really talking about and what I really have to say, I think people will really get me more and more - and that's kind of an ongoing battle.
