When I started, everyone was looking for a new Marika Gombitová. I’ll be surprised, what will have a big and high voice. I wasn’t full yet. I think that my biggest failure was that I rejected the traditional texts. They saw these women in a way that they should not have their own point of view and just sing nice songs, Kirschner recalled, adding that she was not the only one who decided to cast herself at the time.
I made a change to the saw and the Krajina rovina record from 2010. Two years after the release of Krajina rovina, it was quite difficult and I didn’t have much work. But today I see that it has paid off and it is one of the best records in Slovakia in the last twenty years, five. Sometimes the music has another purpose and it doesn’t have to be just nice and pleasant. Salt is huge, and the part of the road that we have covered since the nineties is really big, he added.
There are still differences in working conditions for men and women in the music industry. The headliners at the festivals are mainly men and the general performance of the order. The music and creative business is in his hands. I see how much more energy we as women have to put into the project to make it work. So that we can gain respect and not be just some dolls. Sometimes you meet a person who knows that you are an adult, but debates with you as if you were eighteen years old, she describes.
At the same time, she points out that she is not the type of feminist who tries to oppose at all costs. I think they can play an extremely important role in our lives. I love them and I love them for who they are and how they see the world. I know that I can work with them, but I try not to give too much trouble, because I have seen many times how women themselves do not give trouble to a man, even when the day does not turn out well for him, k.
Don’t be fooled
In the interview, she also talked about the current situation in Slovakia, which can easily be reflected in the song Delia ns (even though the album was created during covid). Is Jana Kirschner divided even around herself? Urite. I think it has to do with fear and, of course, with the fact that people often do not receive true information. My family considers you distant people, who have never had a problem being liberal and open, but in recent years it has become more complicated, and I appreciate that the demagoguery that flows from social media has been reflected in how you act. A bull under pressure and influenced by fear, narrows his gaze.
But that’s why you can’t point a finger and blur them out. They are a people that we truly love, but when it comes to opinions or elections, you can see how they diverge diametrically. It’s a code, every day we have to find a way to come to a common word, he comments on the situation, in his own end of the century.
He asked himself the question: if she had not gone to London, but to Slovakia, would she have remained in the current situation in her native country? I don’t know, it’s just an answer to a question that’s not really my job. I can’t imagine it. I think that many people in Slovakia are very grateful and I admire them for how detached they are from Slovakia. Slovakia did not divide the full So that we, as a people, stay together, do not succumb to indifference and do not allow ourselves to be poisoned by the poison that is currently being honored in society, he added.
In the interview, you can listen to Jana Kirschner talking about her perfectionism, the need to inhale and exhale, her new role as a music producer, the changing role of a mother, the security situation in London and the poverty that many have to live there.
