dear diary,
Technically, this was my first time shooting a music video. With my producer Ruben Debusschere and film director Peejay Brouwers, shot around Belgium during summer 2005.

p/s: Room for 2 is a single from my 1st album, Shameless (released in 2005)

dear diary,
Just found this video; Ruben and I in the studio (de Rockfabriek, Brussels) working on “Hello Disco” back in 2008, the song was starting to sound so damn good i couldn’t help shaking my tailfeather. So here you go, our million-dollar music video!
p/s: that blue tank top i wear underneath the oversized jacket is by OSIXNINE (designed by my sister!)

I must be psychic. I was working on a new song today and thought I should go look for the original copy of ‘I AM GLAM‘ lyrics which I wrote whilst in de Rockfabriek studio with Ruben last year – because it was one of those lyrics I wrote on some random piece of paper and was missing from my songwriting book. By some freak chance, unintentionally found it while cleaning my room just hours later.
Hello, madam zorra.

Todd from The Ripple Effect writes a review on ‘I Am Glam’;
“Perhaps not something that you’d expect to be reviewed on the Ripple, but then we always told you there were no barriers to our mad search for music, as long as it entertains us. And that’s exactly what this one does. This time coming from Kuala Lumpur, Ze (pronounced Zay) teamed up with Belgian producer Ruben Debusschere to create a short-strapped handbag worth of radiant trashy dance music. Or as Ze says herself, she is one loud and bitchy electropop singer. And trust me, what she says is true. “I Am Glam,” is her self-penned piece-de-resistance, an absolute gutter-fest of the trashiest electropop drum and bass you’ll put your eye shadow on to. Looping Yaz-style synths, programmed beats, and then there’s Ze, wailing on in her raving bitchfest that “I am what I am/Glam is what I am.” And it’s her attitude that makes the song work and the whole thing so endearing. Rather than coo like some puffed up diva, Ze belts the song out with so much passion and conviction, it’s almost punk. And that’s the way I’ll leave it. Absolute trashy punky electropop, guaranteed to get the bodies moving on the dancefloor, the boys bouncing under the strobe lights, and girls fighting over their Gucci bags. Just what the doctor ordered to get the party started.”
Spot on!

Here’s a song produced by my producer, Ruben Debusschere, for another artist I’ve always thought was a solo act by the name of Tommy – he turns out to be the vocalist of a 3-man band called Garcia Goodbye. They worked on this while I was there loafing about in the studio (read : sleeping in the corner like a little cat) being lullabied by him. Beautiful.
p/s : He’s never been to Finland.

dear diary,
i love my new single – the same way i always think my latest songs are my best – but i still love all my babies equally much
The song is about ‘boys and their fantasies’. Inspired by someone who broke my heart, so hey, fuck him.
Oh, and ruben, i <3 you you are a fuckin genius! xx
He keeps me up all night
Make me grab my pillow tight
Eat lipstick off my mouth
Puts his hands where i like
He wants to mess my hair
Make it look like he’s been there
Checks out my derriere
And I really dont care
You taste like candy
Bite gently on his ear
My fingers on his rear
Make him turn the lights up
But he wont find me there
Can i be your candy?
