Eric: The album is known as Confessions of a Lonely Coronary heart, and it is about loneliness. We’re so related by way of the web and social media, however we’re maybe the loneliest and most disconnected we have ever been as a result of we stay by way of our telephones.
The physicality of me being a musician and an actor and doing so many alternative tasks is that I am all the time touring, oftentimes alone. I discover myself in stunning locations and unimaginable locations, doing actually cool work with no one to share it with.
I wished to jot down about it and sing about it in a means that was like, “Life is gorgeous. Life is hard. A number of it could really feel lonely, however we’re gonna discover our means by way of it.”
The album ends with “Sometime,” which is a really optimistic, hopeful second. It is about wanting to seek out love — wanting to seek out my individuals and my group. I’ve one way or the other ended up in Paris loads over the previous few years, possibly three or 4 occasions a yr, for vogue exhibits, shoots, or live shows. It is a metropolis of romance and love and all these whimsical issues, however I all the time discovered myself so lonely. I am all the time simply at this desk on my own, watching these stunning individuals in love.
I used to be like, “That is unhappy. However sometime I am going to come again to Paris, and it will be superb. It’s going to be stunning.” That was the form of inspiration behind it. And if you do not have it proper now, sometime you should have no matter it’s you are searching for.
That is what I am wanting ahead to.
