Wattpad's Got Talent 2

KhynYala's Performance

In the Original Music category, KhynYala performs their original piece "Tired"!

Interview Questions:

What inspired you to write this piece?

I started writing songs since when I was 10 years old. The way I wrote it was based on my experiences but this time, I am inspired to write this because of my observations about love. It was for all the people who were tired to love because they were cheated on, who were broke because they were left by. But at some point in our lives, it's not about who left us, it's about how we survived those experiences. We are tired of loving and then not. We are humans, it's our characteristics to be either tired of love or not because there's someone who is destined to love us.

What does music mean to you?

It means a lot. I can say music is my life. This is where I can express my thoughts, problems in my life. It helps me when I'm stressed, it helps me to calm down especially during times when I'm not in the mood. Music is where I can express my feelings/problems without judging. Music is my best friend. Without it, my life would be black and white. No colors. A pale world.

What do you love about performing?

I am exposed already to the stage especially in school. Whenever I sing, it makes me become overwhelmed that I have given this such talent. What I love about it is that it helps me to boost my confidence, to enhance my talents and to make my parents proud. It's so good to feel that you are applauded by everyone. That was only before, I am now more focused in writing songs because somehow, I see myself writing and not into singing, I want to improve my skills in doing it and this Wattpad Got Talent 2 has given me the opportunity to show my piece, even the audio was not that good.

Who/what are your major artistic influences?

Honestly, my father has really influenced me, from singing to playing musical instruments. I was also into Justin Bieber, I just love his songs and also Taylor Swift, she's one of my idols when it comes to songwriting. She's intelligent in translating her experiences to one of the best songs of today. The Vamps also is one of the list and when referring to local artist, Janine Berdin also included.

Please give a big hand to KhynYala!
