Some people think ‘Higher’ is about literally getting high, and other people think it’s more in a spiritual sense. To me, it’s all that. To me, it was like I need to escape from this down state – emotionally, spiritually, mentally, everything. I want to be above this. Wherever we are now. I need to go up. Keiynan Lonsdale Read Quote

From, like, two, three years old, I was obsessed with Michael Jackson and just wanted to be on stage with him. And my mum put me in dance classes, but I had a lot of social anxiety and didn’t want to be around people; I didn’t like to look at anyone in the eye, so that was a difficult thing to get over.
