I just released my debut album.

It's an album called "Visitor," and -- Thank You.

And this whole album is about this, like, massive fear of impermanence I had and this big fear of feeling temporary and learning to navigate, I guess, being in love whilst knowing it won't last.

And I guess it's just an overwhelming feeling of just being a visitor in people's lives and knowing the fragility of yourself and the fragility of relationships and your identity.

And I went into a whole 10-song deep dive about that which you can listen to.

But, um, this next song is a song called "Mono No Aware," which is the last song on the album.

And the phrase is a Japanese phrase that means the gentle sadness of knowing everything beautiful is temporary and loving it more because it won't last.

And when I found that phrase, it just changed my life.

It changed the way I saw things.

It changed the way I approach things.

It allowed me to be so much more open and allow so much more love into my life, and allowed me to love myself a lot more than I did.

And yeah, it's just... [ Cheers and applause ] Thank you.

It's amazing, and it's so beautiful, and it's such a beautiful philosophy that I feel like we can all -- we can all really learn from.

You know, everything is temporary, and we should really treat each other with a lot more kindness and give each other a lot more grace than we do.

So, um... Thank you.

This is my -- This is my favorite song I've ever made.

It's a jazz song, and I love it.

It's called "Mono No Aware."

So I really hope you like it.

And I think I made this whole big fantasy in my head.

And I fell in love with this idea of someone, which I feel like is such a thing we all do sometimes.

And I lowered my expectations a lot, and I started thinking about expectations, and I wrote this song, and I really think we should never rely on other people for our own happiness, which is something I learned through this.

[ Cheering ] And can't trust a man.

What can I say?
