Welcome to Younghollywood. com. Hey Young Hollywood, I'm Michelle Hummel. Today, Los Angeles is the backdrop for the video shoot of Still Alive, the theme song for the much anticipated video game Mirror's Edge. You're here from Sweden. How do you like shooting on top of a building in Downtown Los Angeles?
In Sweden, we have, soon we will have snow, and it's super cold, super dark, so I I'm enjoying it.
Tell me how the collaboration started for Still Alive and you to be incorporated as the theme of Mirror's Edge.
When I was asked to do the song, I wrote the melody and lyrics to the song. I just felt like I was happy to be a part of it, because it's it's like a strong female action hero, and it's just appeals to me. I I think it's it's super cool. It goes along with everything that I stand for, kind of. So, it's it was just a perfect collaboration.
What's the concept of the video shoot today?
Well, the concept is it's like, it will be a little bit unrealistic and futuristic, and it goes so much along with the computer game as well. It's uh, it's gonna be a cool, strong video.
What was some of the first music that you heard and then what inspired you?
Oh, I think I grew up with heavy metal. That was my thing. And later it just I started to listen to all kinds of music, but I think metal is still still a big part of my life.
So, tell me about your music.
It's uh, acoustic-oriented, and uh, I played acoustic guitar, and I play bass and drums and all kinds of instruments. But it's got a touch of country and pop.
Tell me a little bit about what you get to do on your free time when you're not out singing.
Uh, yeah, when I'm not touring, I play ice hockey in the first division in the Women's League in Sweden. We have a practice four times a week, and then I like gaming. I'm going to show you some places where I've been today, and uh, we can start by the you know, the roof over there. I've been walking back and forward on the roof in very high heels. I was so scared of the edge up there. I thought I was going to fall down. Hey Young Hollywood! I was so happy to have you here on my video shoot today. And uh, I'm Lisa Miskovsky, and thanks for joining me today.
