It's important for me as an artist to be honest and uh truthful because I can't be anyone else. Like if I, I mean I would you understand and see, I think it's really cool with people who can have this kind of artist persona that they, you know, create and and uh and and go into this whole role, but I can't do that. And since my songs are all about my life and my experiences, I feel if I try to I don't know, just I'm just really bad at faking it, I guess. Don't cry. And I gotta stay high all the time to keep you off my mind. Oh, oh, oh, oh, high all the time to keep you off my mind. Hey babe, it's I'm Tove Lo. Welcome to my Backstage Diaries.

I'm near YouTube Space, and follow me, I'm going to show you my performance. All my life to forget I'm missing you. Today I did a, or like smaller setup live performance for YouTube Space. And um, played two songs from my EP, Habits and Not on Drugs, and also played for the first time, a new song, Talking Body, uh which is from my album, Queen of the Clouds. The first time I heard my song on the radio, uh I was in Stockholm. I was in the car with my brother. All of a sudden I just hear them call out my name like, here here she is Tove Lo with her new single Habits. It was really amazing. There's like no way to describe it really.

Well, um, this tattoo is actually part of a painting of the artist Mark Ryden. And it kind of reminds me very much of my first band that I was in, and the first band is always special. And I also used to have, I don't know if you can see it, but I used to have black hair and bangs like this girl riding this bee. Um, and I don't know, I think I thought about it for like four years before I got it, and I was like, I still love that painting, I'm going to just do it. So yeah, it was a pretty big step to go from from this little one, this scorpion guy, here to go from that one to this one. But um yeah, I'm I'm still in love with it so hopefully I feel the same when I'm 70.

Uh, thank you, Young Hollywood, for coming my Backstage Diary. Peace out, I'm Tove Lo. Muah.
