‘She’s An Illusion’ is a song about celebrity. It's about how we look up to and admire famous and extremely wealthy people. Perhaps we assume that because they are successful in their field, that their lives are perfect. That they are happy, lucky people to be emulated and even idolized to some extent. While happiness may be the case for some, it isn’t the case for many who live their lives in a gilded cage, imprisoned by their fame. Their lives are micro-managed in detail by those around them who see them as a commodity: An enterprise and a means to make money constantly. As such, their lives are often not really their own and what we, the general public, see is perhaps not the same as what happens behind the scenes. ‘She’s An Illusion’, is a reminder that celebrity is not necessarily the route to happiness. While we should indeed recognize and appreciate the unquestionable talent that many celebrities demonstrate, at the end of the day, celebrity itself is a facade that can often hide much discontent.

B E - INDOORS with ‘Lizzy & the Fanatics’

Portrait drawn by Gin

Having uploaded a number of the B E- INDOORS interviews, it seems that this music edition series has caught the eye of some people, and one of them being Montreal based DIY dream pop act - Lizzy & the Fanatics . Via Instagram, B E W Y L D had this new follower, and after some email exchanges, it was decided that why not ask a few questions. 

B E - What’s your experience with being indoors - so far?

I tend to be my best self when I have time to work alone on various creative projects. I've been writing songs, drawing, editing videos and going on photo walks through alleyways. Also, I've been talking to friends and family a lot more than before actually because I'm more intentional about it and I've become closer to my cat haha. So yeah I'm ok but concerned for some friends who are having a rough time now.

B E - You have a single titled 'Far Away', how far away do you feel now during this time?

Yeah, it's funny because I released that song this winter before all of this, it's about feeling physically distant on the internet. My friend Amelie, who plays keys with me, pointed out how relevant it is now. I hadn't noticed I guess because I'm so used to connecting with others online. The longer this social distancing goes though, the more I miss it. The physicality of friendship, how all of our senses are engaged in our interactions with others.

B E - Any podcasts, movies, TV series, books you have seen, read, listened to and suggest?

Answering this question I realize how I haven't really watched any TV series lately (apart from Tiger King but does that even count? ) I think it's because I've been too distracted by TikTok.

I have been watching movies though. About a year ago, I started a 90s film club with my friends. It sounds so pretentious but we just watch nostalgic cute 90s movies together (only in chronological order haha). Since we've all been in confinement, we stream them together on zoom and it has been so much fun to connect that way. We vote online every week for the movie we will watch. Last week we did 1993 with Dazed and Confused and this week we did 1994 with Speed which was an epic distraction from all that's happening.

B E - Are you working on new music at the moment?

Yes, every day I've been writing and or recording stuff. I arrange and produce everything myself, it can be pretty time consuming so it's nice to have more time for that.

B E - Do you have any message you want to pass on to creatives/musicians out there finding it hard to cope during this strange time?

There is so much creativity happening at this time which is amazing but also, I know it can be really tough to be creative if we are feeling depressed because of the times. Sadness and melancholy can be channeled into creativity but when I feel depressed,  it can be hard to do just about anything.  I think we have to give ourselves space, it's ok to do nothing. Actually, if there is one thing I want to learn from this confinement is being good at doing nothing.

Thanks for the 90′s movie suggestions, we’ll make sure to check em out!

“Le Futur M'Appelle” is a song by Charles Serret which expresses a desire for progression and discovery. Through imprinted words resolution, he describes his desire to move away from what is holding him back and to follow his own path.

Music then becomes a means of transcending doubts and obstacles, helping him move forward despite the challenges encountered along the way. It is an invitation to believe in yourself and your potential, to persevere and let oneself be guided by the call of the future.
