Everybody in Seattle thought I was the chosen one, musically wise. You know, if anyone was going to make it, it was going to be that guy.
My father was a musician, so I feel like falling into this career was a bit inevitable.
The Fox God created Babymetal by coming to us in a dream and telling the three of us to form the band. It is because of the Fox God that we are able to be who we are and perform all over the world.
I feel I was born with the music coming to me, and that's not something to be wasted.
When you start in any band, I don't think you have any idea as to how long your particular journey is going to last. You really don't have a clue. I think that when you come together as musicians, that's the furthest thing from your mind.
There's a feeling that you get when you write songs where... it feels like it's destined to do something. Then sometimes you get that feeling with a song and it never goes anywhere, that happens all the time too, so you never really know.
I knew that I was going to have a life as a musician, because I always felt the pull. I don't remember ever having to make a choice.
I feel that it was my destiny to play with Led Zeppelin, and of course I had the chance and I did it to my best ability.
I always felt I never chose music, it chose me.
