It is time of individualities now. Good performing skills are not enough now, you may sing better or worse - tons of good singers are waiting outside - it doesn't matter. You have to be different!
As I was not a good singer - I have started to sing. And because no one could write an appropriate song for me - I started to write songs by myself.
Some songs can wait for years, and then - boom! and explode like a bomb.
Music appeared later. At first I was making people laugh with my funny stories. Live and on TV too. It was great, but I started to think that people will soon get bored from it. I have said to myself: "If you are going to go on being a superstar, you have to sing!"
Listening to albums and records is not the best way to percept Verka Serduchka. Live shows are the place where you can feel that specific atmosphere, that is not going to be the same ever.
Facebook, instagram - I prefer visual communication better than verbal. But I read all the comments, answering too.
