What does beauty mean to you ? What kind of human actions, personality traits, things on this planet in general do you consider beautiful ?

Beauty is in everything and within all of us and is such a broad term that it encompasses so many acts and forms and bodies. I could write pages and pages on what beauty is and where it can be seen but I want to try and focus on the most important aspect of this. Beauty CAN be found all around you and it is the light that guides us. Beauty is divine, it is pure and it is unwavering in it's power. Open your eyes and hearts to it and you will find it within your self that you too are truly beautiful.
I hope that was concise enough an answer, I don't want to babble and lose sight of what you seek from me so I'm trying, against my nature, to be definitive.

Can I add you on Facebook/Follow you on Twitter?

Yes of course and by all means please do, don't shy away! :)
The links for my Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr and my Soundcloud page where I share my music are all in my bio above but I'll also link them here to prevent any confusion:

How do you understand the word "sensuality" ?

The clue to the answer of this lies in the word itself- 'sensuality' or 'sense'.
Sensuality for me is total communication with the world that surrounds us including all of it's inhabitants and natural forces. This requires all of our senses to be adept to and conversing with each and every synapse in the body of nature.
Sensuality comes when we realise this invisible tie we have with all things and becomes truly marvellous when used in expression such as sexual encounters where we allow ourselves to be at our most intimate and divine.

what is a thing you wish you try ?

Well a major part of the changes I'm currently making in my life are a part of this, some of which I can share if you wish to know and others I can't.
But something I haven't tried which I'd like to? Well I'd like to try more people you know? Meet and interact and share and inspire with as many people as I can reach. I'm also a romantic and a lover so naturally I'm always eager to meet more women in every capacity: friendship, sex, love, romance, debate, discussion etc. I believe the more people you expose yourself to in that way gives you a greater chance of finding a match, a person that's more than just compatible but a perfect fit. I believe wholeheartedly in love and romance and I implore any and all of you to encourage yourselves to go and meet as many people as you can, don't settle for the first person you find attractive, explore and learn.

No worries! It's a plus you love The Beatles, or I'm assuming you do because of your background :P I'm a huge Beatles fan myself. Just to make this more interesting, who's your favorite member of the band and why? Do you have a favorite song that has always stood out that you'll forever love?

Yes, I was born in Arrowe Park Hospital, Wirral, Merseyside- just across the river from Liverpool, literally. So naturally I have a very strong affinity with the culture of my hometown and with it's atmosphere and with the people who built it.
The Beatles will always be my most loved and treasured band because they were the first to touch my soul and to open my mind, Without The Beatles I would not have discovered my identity, meditation, spiritualism and of course, many many other bands that I adore dating from before The Beatles conception to the present day. I owe The Beatles everything artistically and that will never be forgotten.
My greatest idols are John Lennon and Russell Brand, which tells you enough in itself about me. So to answer your question as to who is my favourite Beatle then it is John hands down. The reason for this is that I can relate to John in an awful lot of ways and I naturally develop a deep spiritual connection with troubled souls with the gift of expression. I love John Lennon.
Wow, you are asking the most monstrously fanatic individual of this band what his favourite song is?! That's impossible I think. 13 albums and around 200 songs over 8 years and I have to pick one? No way. I will tell you however that Abbey Road is my favourite album musically but the album(s) that has had the most influence on me were Rubber Soul and Revolver, those records changed my life! And then Sgt.Pepper and The White Album happened and that was when I was intrinsically connected to these four men and their art. But honestly there isn't song of theirs that I skip, and that's how I am able to measure my love for them as more than any other.

You have such sagacious answers. I am definitely following you now! You are so worth it. I'm so enthralled by you and to have found your page. Your mind is such a beautiful work of art. Stay forever darling :)

That's an incredible and profound compliment which I must admit has blown my mind and softened my heart. Thank you so much! I honestly could never have had the foresight to predict the following I have now picked up but I maintain that I am no leader or visionary any more so than you are or anybody else reading this! I'm one of you and proud of that.

When someone asks you about your "-est"s (including best, worst, most, least, and favorite), does only one truly come into thought or do multiples fill your mind?

Fuck Fickle Feelings
I think it would be impossible for just one to come to mind you know, perhaps only one may slip from mind to tongue erroneously or even quite brilliantly depending on the circumstance but I'd say generally I'm concise and with categorising of that nature I try my best to be as definitive as possible.

oh my god ^-^ your answers are very inspiring and sight full .stay safe and keep it up :")

Thank you so much that means alot to me and I will certainly keep my efforts and hopefully my intrigue up! :)

Do we become happy only when we meet the one we love?

I think when we discover that person we are elevated to a higher platform of happiness, this is one of the few connections we makes as human beings that connect us with our soul and thus with our spiritual selves, we become one with our true selves and with the true self of our partner and this is what love is powerful and so beautiful. It's utterly divine and potently majestic!

One of my most outstanding inboxes today came from a user I adore very much, I hang off her every word and light up with optimism and delight at every question she sends my way. This was the inbox: ''I am officially in love with your answers. Simfonia''

And I want to take the oppurtunity also to thank ALL of you so much for taking the time to follow, like, ask, discuss, deliberate and most importantly read the things I have to say- you all have no idea how incredible you make me feel about myself and about humanity!
So please keep keep the questions coming and I vow to put all of my heart and soul into each and every answer as quickly as I can for all of you and continue sharing your artwork, music and of course your thoughts and opinions and questions with me!

Have you ever been a victim of emotional violence ? If yes, then in what ways did that affect you ?

I could discuss with you my whole history with these types of encounters and discuss my relationship with my Dad and with other people among many other things but, if it's okay with you and with the rest of you, this is the one of the few bits of information I'd like to keep with me and not open to the public domain. I just feel that this is something that isn't- at this time- necessary to share with you guys but I can tell you that this is one of very few topics that I will withhold for myself and not allow you knowledge of for the time being.

Does it irritate you when someone fears to approach you or do you consider their shyness "cute" ?

It doesn't irritate me at all, I just found it terribly sad. Think how much more opportunity we could afford ourselves if we allowed ourselves just that bit of a kick of confidence and self-assurance that anything is possible!
One piece of advice: never fear approaching me, I welcome anyone who has good intentions and I completely understand those who are shy or anxious, honestly I do, and that is why I will always afford you my time and effort if you step out of the shadows long enough to make yourself known.

How would you describe the mechanism of a human being's mind ? How does human mind work ?

I'll show you mine if you show me yours ;)
How could I possibly know the answer to that question without even having the slightest clue as to how my own mind works? I would LOVE to know how the mind works and about all it's little mechanisms but I'm afraid to say a race we are quite incapable of discovering all of the brains little secrets and nooks and crannies for many centuries at least. And to me at least, it's better that way. The brain should be a mystery, a wonder, it's all part of the magnificence and beauty of the mind!

Do you think that a person has to respect absolutely everyone, even those who disrespect them, or do you think that respect has to be earned ? Why ?

We all share this planet and we all share the same air, so should we not try our best to make it as easy as we can to move forward together? Some people say respect is a privilege, I say it's common courtesy that should be afforded to everyone despite their disposition. Love all and love yourself.

Does your usual behavior cause judgments from other people ? Why / why not ?

The very nature of who I am and what I am invites judgement from other people but that's okay with me. Art is not art without opinion, discussion, debate etc nor is philosophy and it's many facets.

Can you imagine yourself as a national hero ? Can you imagine people buying various kinds of items (clothes, magnets, keyrings, etc.) with your face printed on them ? How would being so famous make you feel and why ?

I can't give myself that title and I don't intend to, that is for other people to decide and flatter me with if they so deem it right and just. Naturally as an aspiring musician I appreciate that fame and fortune is a huge driving force behind the success of an artist and if granted with either or both I intend to use it for the good to benefit the people and to help society open their eyes, ears, minds and mouths also so that you might join me in trying to change the world for the better.
Do any of you think I should be a national hero, or perceive me to be someone capable of such a prestigious and privileged position? haha

On this site, when asked for sharing their opinions on a certain topic, some people just google the topic, copy the 1st thing that "pops up" and claims it as their response. Why do you think they do so? Because of being too lazy to think? Or is it a desire to look smarter? Are you guilty of that?

I can honestly say that I have never done that, and the proof is in my words. You must all know that I personally write all of these out of my own accord from my own heart and soul. I answer you with my mind and my intellect not with someone elses. That makes me a liar and a fake and I am neither of those.
I'm not sure why other users of this site do that, perhaps it's because society has taught us for so long to blind ourselves with mindless commercialism and filtered 'news' reports to the extent that it demands a celebration and a fiasco when someone now opens their eyes to see for themselves. I also think that people are afraid to express, sincerely and truthfully, how they feel out of fear of denial and rejection.

If any kind of crime - even murder - was legal for 24 hours, do you think that someone would kill you ? Why / why not ?

I would certainly hope not as I feel that I have reserved that right for myself only. Nobody has the right to take my life from me but myself and when I feel the time is right I will take that course of action.
However, that's for other people to discuss, if there is anybody out there who would kill me now is the time to warn me.

Do you agree that each person has a void inside of them that needs to be filled ? Why / why not ?

Yes, I think they do. This is something I have dealt with throughout my life an emptiness of the soul and it is like an infestation, a plague. I can physically feel the hole that's ravaged me for as long as I can recall. I don't think every person has this no, I think it's restricted to a select number of people thought still far too many and it seems certainly to be a huge issue within our generation and I hope it starts to receive media and political attention to help eradicate this problem as much as possible and lessen the blow for those with severe cases.
As to why, I don't know. It's the way I was born regardless of the trauma I was also subjected to from birth onwards I honestly feel I would still have this hole in my core. I think it is certainly a spiritual issue as it is also a biological, genetic issue that causes this void as you call it.

What is the difference between obsession and addiction, in your opinion ?

I think the difference between the two can be made quite simple and be stripped back to it's bare bones. Addiction is biological, that has been proven now substantially so, it is a genetic disorder and an illness. Obsession is not biological, it's an illness of the mind. However both are quite capable of destroying a person from the inside and out, both are very much illnesses and should be treated as such.

What's the most disturbing thing you have ever witnessed?

Xal
Murder and attempted murder, if you're asking about first-hand experiences including my own life and that of others having been on the line. But to me any kind of violence is disturbing, we are community driven creatures by our nature and yet we fight and we war and we kill. It saddens me so deeply to see any kind of violence and I always throw myself into any situation like that to break it up and prevent bloodshed, or any further in the instance where I was nearly killed myself.

If you do not understand the reason(s) of a person's actions, do you automatically judge that person and make assumptions without even trying to understand them ? Or do you try to understand them ? Why ?

I believe in and am a patron of understanding. It is vital, absolutely essential to the progression of humanity and all of the little relationships that tie us together.
In fact the other day I was out with an old friend of mine and as we were leaving the pub a homeless drunkard approached us and tagged along on our little journey to the next pub. Little did I know my friend, bless her heart, was terrified mindlessly so! This confused me, the man had no ill intent despite his afflictions and our obvious prosperity and I couldn't help but wonder how a man could have fallen from grace so far! He had left his home in Ireland 20 years prior and ended up living on the streets of Southend, alone, with nothing. He never once asked us for many he merely wanted the company and the conversation and he was absolutely fascinating to me!
Whilst my friend was terrified and uncomfortable, I felt at ease, I just wanted to learn more from this magnificent and battered man. That experience really taught me how determined I am to reach out to people, no matter what their background or current situation or race or gender or age or sexuality- I want to connect with humanity and to help, in any capacity. And the biggest part of that is just understanding, or taking the time to try at least.

Do you have an alter ego ? Or, perhaps, several alter egos ? If yes, then describe it / them. If no, then what is your opinion on alter egos in general ? Why do some people have such ?

This is certainly a question of great intrigue and I will do my best to keep the theme of mystery intact throughout this. It's hard to say if I have an alter ego, or several. One thing I will say is, I am very candid and very honest, however, as all artists do I do hold things back for myself and I always have at least one defensive barrier upheld to protect me. But this is simply because without it I would be truly naked for all the world to see and you would have access to everything. And as humans we each have the right to as much privacy as we afford ourselves.
So perhaps my alter ego is simply just a slightly filtered version of myself, it's honest, it's candid and it is all me, but you don't get to infiltrate every facet and every crevice of my being. So perhaps then, we all have our own alter-ego's, to a degree?

In your opinion, what makes women fall for emotionally shut-down, distant men, who only hurt them afterwards ?

I think that for some women they crave the challenge of fixing a man, to make him the man he could be and to be responsible for his success. I think they might see this is honourable and that this might also be a little selfish too. On the other hand I also think that these men are attractive to women because they offer spontaneity, excitement, drama, passion, and most of all mystery. They keep these women wondering, longing but hesitating to learn the truth, the deep dark secrets within.
