Oscar Zia: "I fell in love – and I hated it"

Make up with the music industry with the new songs

The new release of Oscar Zia's record is an agreement with the music industry.

"At age 15, I was extremely approachable and open to form and change. I was therefore shaken, completely emptied and emptied of my knowledge of who I am, "he says.

With music in Swedish, he tries to find – for the first time, personal texts about his first love, his anxiety and his bakis.

He broke through as a "15 Factor" in the X factor, twice in the Melodifestivalen, director of the radio program and participated in "Music Help".

Oscar Zia, 22, wanted to go well, but described it as a break and a loss of self.

"I was extremely approachable and open to form and change, so I was shaken, that made me completely emptied all the knowledge of who I am." I felt laziness, like a damn darkness about myself, "he said.

I was not ready to spot myself this way, not ready for this attention

You regret what you did?

– No, I've come to the conclusion that I do not regret anything. I've certainly hesitated: "Why am I doing this?", But I've never done anything without doing it wholeheartedly. It's my strength that I always do things correctly.

Is there anything you think you did not do if you had this question today?

"What I can feel clean is that I did" Human "and I went out, I do not regret the song or the result of what he needed, but for me. I was not there mentally, I was not ready to spot myself that way, not ready for that attention, it was as if I had a shot in the face and that I felt: "Oscar, it was too early to expose yourself to that."

Now he feels more ready.

– Yes, it's a control that I have now. All texts are extremely personal. But it's just me who has read the absolute most private songs.

I put myself aside and tried to make someone else feel good, I did not put myself in the place

The work of the songs of the ep "Din" describes Oscar as intriguing torn pieces of oneself.

– These songs came out of the darkness. When you listen, you may hear a love story, and it is like that too, but if I listen to it, I see my personal development. But also falling in love, getting together, and now I was wrong or you were wrong.

Because in trying to find what he wanted to be, Oscar Zia fell in love, perhaps for the first time, with his boyfriend. Jonathan, 29.

– I say in a press release that I fell in love. And I hated it. Because I was so broke. I put myself aside and tried to make someone else feel good, I did not put myself in the place. The songs are about. It's just the same as my career.

In the song "Your", Oscar Zia evokes the feeling of not daring to believe that love has published his ex with lines of text such as:

"He hates watching when we are together

So I hold you so hard that it's okay "

and:

"Can you give me

The promise that nothing but live, between you two "

"Say if you want" speaks of uncertainty when a ragg goes to love and that Oscar sings:

"As soon as you shut up, I get lost

Then I create the air around you

You watch everything when you drink

But remember when you are sober "

What does it mean to be personal and sing about specific things that people in your neighborhood can recognize?

"I usually think it's the best thing you can get, a song for yourself, when I've written something, it's my truth, but it's really all too clear." It's more than a memory, now that others can listen to it, it will always be there.
