Gary, I can't do the series. I'm not well.


That's why I've been saying no. I'm not well.


Can we please focus on my wellbeing rather than my talent.

No California Nadine. No.


I can't do it. I'm not mentally well enough. The recording session for an album I think I could cope with.

I'll say yes because you're forcing me to, but then I'll kill myself.


That's how I feel right now: like killing myself.


That's how ashamed I am of how I made Chloe feel.

No, I'm not using the Shipwrecked songs. If you're forcing me to do it, then I'm using NZ folk songs. Not using the title song. I'm still entirely prepared to make that musical, and that score is great.
